WARNING: If you do not obey the following instructions, injury to the rider or to others
can occur:
Before you ride the bicycle for the first time, check and adjust the brakes as written in the
"Adjustments” section. Then test the brakes and practice using them at low speed in a large and level
area that is free of obstruction.
When correctly used, the brake system is very effective. But, if you apply the front brake too strongly,
you can be thrown off the bicycle. Make a habit of always using both brakes to stop the bicycle.
Always try to brake while going in a straight line. Apply brakes earlier in the following conditions: wet
pavement, sand, gravel, leaves, or if you need to brake while turning. To reduce the chance of skidding
apply brakes intermittently.
If the rims are wet, start to brake earlier than normal because a longer distance to stop the bicycle will
be necessary.
Be careful when riding downhill or at a high speed because as your speed increases, a longer distance
to stop the bicycle will be necessary. Slow for curves because too much speed can force you to make a
turn too wide.
Keep wax, oil, grease, etc. off the rims and the brake shoes. These lubricants will reduce brake
performance and a longer distance to stop the bicycle will be necessary.
Check and adjust the brakes the first time they do not stop the bicycle quickly and smoothly, do not
stop the bicycle as well as they have in the past, or if either brake lever can touch the grip.
