Disassembling the brake cable :
• Detach the link (1, Fig. 9) on the brake le-
ver (if necessary, screw the adjustment
screw (2) in somewhat until the link can
be detached).
• Remove the nut (3) on the link and
remove the entire old brake cable.
Assembling the brake cable:
• Mount the new brake cable and new
cable housing.
Advice:
• Only use new, high-quality brake cables
and compression-free cable housings.
• Ensure that the length of the cable
housings allow a maximum turn of the
handlebar.
• Screw adjusting screw (5, Fig 10) with
lock nut (6) completely into the cable
stop (4) and insert into the slot (7) on the
brake anchor plate.
• Push brake cable end through adjusting
screw.
• Insert cable housing end into adjusting
screw.
• Attach the bellows to the adjustment
screw.
• Thread brake cable end into link and
under the washer (8) and tighten nut (9)
slightly (hex wrench 5 mm).
Caution:
Ensure that the brake cable lies in the
notch of the link.
• Attach link (10, Fig. 11) to brake lever (11).
Caution:
Curved side of the link should be out-
side and hex nut should point away
from brake.
Use outer standard position “125 kg”
(overall weight).
• Pull brake cable end tight with pliers so
that link can still be attached and
removed (important for changing wheel).
• Tighten nut (9, Fig. 10) , torque 7 – 8 Nm
(62 – 70 in.lbs.). Counter the screw with
a 10 mm wrench.
Advice:
Put the link in the position first that is
closest to the total weight of the bicycle
with cyclist and baggage.
Positioning of link can be changed to
personal preferences, but we advise to
use according to weight.
Make sure you use the same position
after changing the wheel.
• Check the brake adjusting.
See “ADJUSTING THE BRAKE“.
Caution:
Check whether the brake functions
correctly.
