The brake lever may not be used when
your bicycle is lying sideways, upside
down or if a wheel has been removed.
Otherwise air bubbles can enter the hy

draulic system which could cause the
brakes to fail.
After transporting the bicy-
cle, check if the pressure point of the
brakes seems
softer than before. Then
apply the brakes slowly several times.
This allows the braking system to dis
-
charge any bubbles. If the pressure
point remains soft, please refrain from
riding.

discharge the air from the brake system.
You can avoid this problem by applying
the brake lever before transport and

that

blocks if you need to remove the wheel.
