Brake chafing. Continual chafing of the brakes may
overheat them and reduce braking effectiveness as a
result. Break in new brake pads. Check to make sure
they are installed securely and that the wheels are
also secure.
Risk of damage to brake components due to
overheating.
Break in new brake pads. Check to
make sure they are installed securely and that the
wheels are also secure.
Sudden loss of power and propulsion. Shifting
under a load may cause the chain to slip or fall off
of the chain rings. The loss of power and propulsion
may cause a crash. When shifting, continue to pedal
without applying excessive force.

Brakes
Brake chafing
If the brake pad rubs against the disc while cycling,
this could be due to the following:
– The brakes have not been completely broken in.
– The wheel may not be centred in the axle mounts
of the frame and/or the front forks. Re-centre the
wheels.
– The wheels may not be securely positioned in the
axle mounts. Check the quick releases and the hub
screw connections.
Derailleur
The components of your bike that convert pedalling
power to propel the wheel forward are referred to as
the derailleur. These parts include the inside bearing,
pedal crank, pedals, cassette, gearhub and chain
and/or pulleys and belts.
With the derailleur, you can adjust your gear ratio and
thereby change the distance travelled by the wheel
per crank revolution. With a derailleur, a small front
chain wheel and a large rear sprocket correspond to
an easy gear ratio that is ideal for uphill travel. A large
gear ratio is achieved with a large front chain wheel
and a medium-sized to small sprocket on your cas-
sette. This ratio is suitable for high speeds on level
terrain. A gear hub offers multiple gear ratios with a
gear display.
Derailleur
With a derailleur, you should consider the diagonal
position of the chain. Attempt to avoid combinations of
a small chain ring and small sprocket and/or large chain
ring and a large sprocket. This reduces the lifetime of
your chain and/or the chain rings and sprocket. Chain and chain ring. Trousers with wide legs may
catch in the chain or the chain ring and cause a crash.
Wear trousers with tight-fitting legs or use leg bands
or clips.
