1. Twist the brake lever adjuster in or out, making 1⁄4 to 1⁄2 turn adjustments at a time until
the desired brake adjustment is achieved. If the brake still requires further adjustment,
proceed to step 2.
2. Determine whether the brake cable is loose or if the brake rotor is dragging on the brake
pad: Loosen the brake hub’s barrel adjuster.
3. Adjust the brake hub adjuster in or out until the desired brake adjustment is achieved.
Lock the brake hub barrel adjuster in place.
4. Perform a nal adjustment of the tension in the brake cable using the brake lever barrel
adjuster. Repeat the TEST BRAKE section above to ensure proper adjustment.
PRE-RIDE CHECK LIST
5. WHEELS
• Check the condition of both tires and ensure the tread is in good condition, and free
from punctures, cracks, and deformations.

tightly secured.

from left to right.
