1.1 Mounting/Fitting & Service
BFO disk brakes have higher braking powers than other braking systems.
Please make sure that all relevant components of your bicycle are
compatible with your BFO brake. Maximum braking power, system weight
(rider + bicycle + baggage (/luggage) + trailer), speed and road condition as
well as the diameter of the rotors determine the load peaks that can affect
other parts and the whole assembly. Please take this into account when
choosing parts/components affected by this matter (fork, frame, hub, quick
release skewer, handlebar and handle stem). Use components of high quality
that are stable as well as/ and technically advanced. Turn to an authorised
bicycle shop/specialty retail trade/specialist retail/specialist trader for advice
regarding safe combinations and sensible/reasonable dimensioning.
BFO disk brakes have extremely high braking powers because of the
patented brake booster. This has a noticeable effect on the pressure point,
which feels softer/more sensitive in comparison to other manufacturers. Be
sure to acquaint yourself carefully with the system, its performance and
modulation.
⚠⚠
