
Testing your cables for a proper adjustment - turn the adjusting barrel at the brake lever assembly, this
will cause the cable to tighten and the brake caliper arm to move. If the brake caliper arm moves with
the turning of the adjusting barrel, your cable should be properly adjusted. If adjusted properly, refer to
section d “Brake pad replacement” of this chapter.
CAUTION:
The angle position of the brake arm has been specially designed. Do not change its angle position
higher than 1mm while pulling the brake cable. Otherwise, the brake performance will be affected. Be sure not to adjust
the adjusting barrel on the brake lever assembly other than required during riding or it will also have a bad influence on
the brake performance.
CAUTION:
Brake pad replacement – check the brake pads for wear. At 1/2mm or less thickness of brake lining,
the pads are worn and must be replaced for continued safe braking.
d. Brake pad replacement
The G Plus Mariner 7 uses a Promax DSK-715 Bearing Caliper Front & Rear Disc Brake system. The disc brake
pads are compatible with Avid BB5 disc brakes and can be found or ordered from almost any neighborhood bicycle
shop or you can contact your Authorized Prodeco Technologies dealer. The pads are always available at no charge
through Prodeco Technologies directly.


The replacement of the pads is required when pads have less than 1/2mm of pad material remaining.
Pad replacement requires either the removal of the disc brake caliper or wheel to install new pads. To
remove the caliper, use the 5mm hex key in the multi-piece tool kit that came with your bicycle and
remove the caliper mounting bolts.
