Veloretti junior, Assembly Manual

Page: 17 / 24

Adjust the brake pad so it lies flat against the rim & is aligned with the curve of the rim. If the
pads are too tight, the brake lever is going to pull and immediately engage, making it harder to
disengage the quick release mechanism. Adjust the screw located on the lever to give the brake
cable more slack or make it tighter (Fig. 5.2). Keep in mind that you should still be able to pull
out the cable from the cable unit (Fig. 5.1).
Adjust and centralize the brake: Centering is done by subtle changes in spring tension. Both si-
des of the caliper arms will have a adjacent screw. By tightening the screw, you increase tension
(Fig. 5.2).
Step 6 - Saddle
Put the saddle rod into the seat tube at the desired height and tighten the seat clamp bolt with
Allen key 5 (Fig. 6). You can adjust the saddle angle by loosening the bolt on the side of the
saddle (Fig. 6.1).
Sitting on the seat, with the pedal at the bottom of its rotation, your childs leg should be almost
straight, with just a slight bend in your knee.
You’ve done it! The bicycle is assembled and ready to be ridden!
