Brakes are a safety-critical item on a bicycle.
Improper set-up or use of brakes can result
in loss of control or an accident, which could
lead to a severe injury.
It’s your responsibility to learn and under-
stand proper braking techniques. Consult
the owner’s manual for your bicycle and a
professional bike dealer. Practice your rid-
ing and braking techniques in a controlled
environment prior to aggressive riding.
The effectiveness of braking is dependent on
many conditions over which Avid has no
control including the speed of the bicycle,
type and condition of the riding surface,
braking lever force, proper installation and
maintenance of brakes, cables, levers, brake
pads, the condition of the bike, weight of the
rider, proper braking techniques, weather,
terrain, and a variety of other factors.
ALWAYS RIDE UNDER CONTROL.
Remember, it takes longer to stop in wet
conditions. To reduce the possibility of an
accident and minimize trail erosion, you
should avoid locking-up your wheels.
