Disc brakes
One of the most important safety features of your Islabike. It is a good habit
to check the brakes on a regular basis. This should be done depending on
the type, frequency or duration of riding. If your bike has not been used for
a period of time, we recommend a quick check before riding.
Surfaces in or around the brake components will become very hot
to touch during brake operation and pose a very high risk of burning
skin when touched. Always ensure that you leave plenty of time for
the components to cool before touching them.
Brake operation – Pull on one brake at a time and look at the brake pads.
Check to see if they are touching the discs evenly when applied. If the
pads are not contacting the discs correctly, they are uneven, rubbing or
feel spongy to apply please contact our technical support team on
+44 (0) 1584 708 383 or email techsupport@islabikes.co.uk.
Brake pad wear and replacement – Brake pads do not last forever.
Eventually they will need replacing. This will depend on the type, frequency
and duration of riding. Brake pads must be replaced if the total thickness
of the backing plate and pad friction material is less than 3mm.
Riding with backing plate and pad friction material less than 3mm
can result in reduced braking performance, crash, and/or death.
Pads tted as standard are organic compound. We recommend
replacing with the same compound to maintain performance.
Brake uid and replacement – The brakes tted to your bike contain mineral
oil. Your uid will need replacing annually to maintain performance. Always
seek professional advice – specialist tools are required for this maintenance.
DO NOT ALLOW brake uid to contact skin or eyes. If uid comes
into contact with skin or eyes seek to dilute with plenty water and
seek medical advice.
The X35+ rear hub motor tted to your eJoni is only compatible with
rotor sizes from Ø160-180mm.
