Disc Brakes
Jorvik Tricycles are equipped with disc brakes for maximum reliability whatever the condions and load. Pulling on the
brake levers will engage the brake calliper and apply pressure from the pads to the brake rotor on the wheel. This
creates fricon slowing the wheel down. The more pressure applied the more braking force is applied and so the faster
the tricycle will come to a stop.
Braking should be done in a smooth acon. Applying the front or rear brake quickly can cause the rider to be thrown o
the saddle. Best pracce is to apply braking force evenly at rst then applying slightly more front brake to reduce the
possibility of skidding.
Disc brakes can somemes make a very light scraping noise; especially cable disc brakes, this is normal.
Warning:
Disc brakes can become extremely hot under braking. DO NOT TOUCH rotor aer use. Wet weather will
require longer braking distances and increase the possibility of skidding. Brake early and progressively in
wet or muddy condions
