The essentials
Braking
... to pedal and stop correctly.
Front + rear
press the lever release the lever
Remember which lever operates the
front brake and which the rear brake.
Ideally use both front and rear brakes
simultaneously.
Make sure no grease, oil, silicone
spray or wax comes on the brake pads,
disc rotor or rim.
Brake short and hard instead of
continuously to prevent overheating of
the components.
Longer braking could cause the brakes
to overheat and fail. As soon as you
note the braking force weakening,
stop and let the brakes cool down.
Do NOT touch the brake pads or the
disc brake rotor, especially after use.
There is danger of cutting or burning
as the rotor gets very hot.
