ASSEMBLY
Fibula assembly
If not properly performed, assembly and maintenance work could cause accidents resulting in
death or serious injury.
- Do not overestimate your technical ability. All assembly and maintenance work should be
performed by a specialist workshop for bicycles. This is the only way to ensure the work is
conducted in a professional manner.
WARNING
Requirements for correct installation and adjustment of the
THM-Fibula racing brakes are:
- An intact brake cable system with new inner brake cables.
- Brake cable outer sheaths and end pieces with an external
diameter of max. 5mm (0.2in). -Shimano® brake pads.
- Precisely centred wheels (max. 0.2mm (0.01in) later-
al / max. 1mm (0.04in) radial run-out).
- Wheels mounted at the exact centre of the frame and fork.
- Suitable tire dimensions - min. 13 mm (0.52 in) gap between
the tire and brake bolt axis (fig. 1).
INSTALLING THE BRAKE SHOES
Risk of accident caused by an insufficient braking effect or
erratic braking as a result of inappropriate brake pads.
- Only ever use those brake pads which have been
approved by your wheel manufacturer.
WARNING
Make sure all brake pads are correctly installed as
follows:
The arrow (FORWARD) should be facing the direction
of travel (to the front).
Brake pads marked with a LEFT inscription should be
installed in the left-hand brake shoe
(1).
Brake pads marked with a RIGHT inscription should
be installed in the right-hand brake shoe
(2).
