To ensure optimal braking, it is necessary to check the condition of the brake pads:
initially they usually have 3mm of ferodo. If after its operation we observe that this
distance has been reduced below 2mm, it will be necessary to replace them with
new ones.
To replace, it is necessary to disassemble the front brake from the suspension
bottle, removing the screw and the clip that are removed from the bottom. For
assembly, it is necessary to open the pistons with a screwdriver by prying between
them to separate the pistons. In turn, you must ensure the tightening of the screws
and pin.
The brakes are self-adjusting to a point, but their correct alignment guarantees
maximum performance. The pads should keep the same distance from the disk for
maximum efficiency.
Visually inspect the pads while the wheel is spinning. Check that your alignment
is correct and keep the same distance from the disc. If you need to make any
adjustments, follow the instructions below:
1.
Remove the safety clip from the screws. There is one on each brake.
2.
Using the 5mm allen wrench, loosen the two screws on the brake bracket,
allowing the caliper to move freely.
3.
With the wheel raised, act on the brake lever, this will move the caliper to the
center with respect to the disc.
4.
While still acting on the brake lever, the pads firmly tighten the disc, without
releasing the lever, re-tighten the two caliper bracket screws.
5.
If the wheel doesn’t turn freely after stopping the brake, further adjustment is
A
required beyond the limits of the caliper’s own adjustment that can be achieved
using spacer washers. In this way, the clamp can align perfectly.
6.
Put again the screw security clip. There is one in each clamp
7.
The brake levers can be adjusted in range. Use a 2mm Allen. Turning the screw
counterclockwise manages to bring the reach closer to the handlebar (for smaller
hands)
Using the 5mm Allen wrench, loosen the two screws on the front and / or rear brake caliper.
The brake levers can be adjusted in range,
using a 2mm Allen and turning the screw
in one of the directions we can adjust the
range we want.
