Connecting the brake

You only need to connect the wireless ANT Bushido brake to the handlebar mounted computer once, 
the next time you start up Bushido, brake and computer will recognize each other right away. You 
need to be cycling when you connect the brake because this will put tension on the brake which 
makes the data transfer possible.

Creating a user profile

The Bushido needs you to input some personal data that will be used to calculate power output and 
also save your score. You will enter: user name, weight including the bike, sex, date of birth and 
length. See page SELECT USER for the explanation on settings.
