CHECK YOUR BRAKES

You can adjust the reach to the lever using
the allen head screw as shown in the picture
to find the perfect reach for your child’s hands.
Squeeze the brakes before setting o
ff
on a ride. It’s easy to
forget to reconnect brake cables after transporting the bike
or repairing a puncture. Ensure the brake blocks are not
worn and contact the rim uniformly when the brake lever is
pulled. If in doubt, ask your dealer.
Your bike is equipped with two short reach, high
performance brakes. Encourage your child to pull the
brake lever smoothly and gradually. Remember that braking
will throw the rider’s weight forward and so when the brakes
are applied, extend or tense the arms to resist this motion.
Regularly inspect the brakes for adjustment and wear.
A worn or loose brake pad won’t work well and may be
more dangerous than no brake pads at all.

U20 & U20FBR
Your bike is set up so the right hand brake lever operates the front
brake. If the destination country drive on the right, the right hand
brake will operate the rear brake. Please check before the first
ride.
