BefORe eveRy Ride: CheCkLiSt
Before every ride, check your bicycle and its brakes. If your brakes do not
pass inspection, readjust the brake system or take your bicycle to your dealer for
service.
Squeeze each brake lever toward the handlebar to make sure the brake moves
freely and stops the bicycle. If the brake lever can be pulled to the handlebar, the
brake is too loose (make sure the brake opening lever, Figure 1, is closed).
When the brakes are not applied, the brake pads should be 1 to 2 mm from the
rim. If the brake pads are too
close to the rim, the brake is
too tight. Brake pads should
be aligned with the rim sur-
face (Figure 2). If the brakes
are not properly adjusted,
follow the instructions in the
Adjustment section of this
manual or take your bicycle to
your dealer for service.
WaRninG
if your brakes are not working properly, you can lose control and
fall. inspect the brakes thoroughly before every ride. do not ride
the bicycle until any problem has been corrected.

not offer the correct adjust-
ment to fit your bike, consult
your Bontrager dealer.
If the brakes are already
installed on your bike, please
