It is important to bed-in your new brake pads to achieve optimal
performance, increase pad longevity and reduce the likelihood of brake
fade and noise.
To safely achieve optimal results, remain seated on the bike during the
entire bed-in procedure. Accelerate the bike to a moderate speed (12mph /
20kph), then rmly apply the brakes until you are at walking speed. Repeat
approximately twenty times. Next, accelerate the bike to a faster speed,
then rmly apply the brakes until you are at a walking speed. Repeat
approximately ten times.
Important: Do not lock up the wheels at any point during the bed-in
procedure. Allow the brakes to cool prior to any additional riding. If you
