Adjusting the Brake Caliper
After you have tightened the brake mounting bolts, squeeze the
brake lever a couple times to set the position of the caliper.
Squeeze the brake lever one more time and hold pressure on the
lever while tightening the caliper adjusting bolts (Fig 2). This will
align the caliper and brake pads. The rotor should be running
parallel and central to the caliper body. When depressed the brake
lever should be approximately 1 inch or more off the hand grip and
have a firm feel. The front wheel should roll freely without dragging
on the brake when this operation is complete
.
Installing The Rear Shock
The Rear shock is mounted to the top shock mount under the seat.
There is a short tube that holds the bike in a lowered position for
shipping purposes. The top bolt and the tube will be discarded but
You will need the bottom bolt from the Shipping tube to
secure the bottom of the shock to the rear fork.
With the
tube removed swing the shock down into place and install the bolt
that was removed from the bottom of the shipping tube.
