Continuous braking without interruption, especially if it is done with a single brake,
can reduce the braking power and even lead to the total failure of the brake in extreme
situations.
On long downhill sections you should get used to breaking with both brakes at the
same time, in a brief and strong manner. Avoid continued braking by releasing the brake
regularly after each time you break. Stop at the first sign of overheating, i.e. if it seems
that a higher manual force is required, or there is a smell or noise. Let the brakes cool
down before continuing to ride.
DO NOT TOUCH THE DISC OR THE
CALIPER IMMEDIATELY AFTER A
PROLONGED DOWNHILL RUN BECAUSE
THERE IS A RISK OF GETTING BURNT.
FOR YOUR OWN SAFETY GO TO A
BULTACO MOTORS DEALER. IF YOU
DETECT ANY ABNORMALITY WITH THE
BRINCO BRAKES OR IF YOU NEED TO
PERFORM ANY MAINTENANCE WORK.

Before each use (min. thickness including the bracket: 2.5 mm)
Monthly and before every long range trip (min. thickness 1.8 mm)
Before each use (there should be no breaks in the cable)
Before each use (there should be no loss of fluid)
