Brake configuration
We will focus just on changing parts in this chapter.
After you have followed the steps on page 7, you
can now remove the clevis fork and shaft. This makes it very
easy to change around parts to suit your preference.
Keep in mind, all parts connected to the shaft are
loose fitting. Make sure to keep parts together
which don’t need to be replaced to avoid
misplacing them.
The parts which we expect to be removed when
changing the brake stack as shown on the right:
Locking Knob (L)
Adjustment Knob (A)
Elastomer (E)
Bushing (B)
Elastomer Washer (W)
Pre-load Spring (P)
Depending on your preference, we have
included four elastomers (E) in different
hardness (Shore A) ratings for you to try.
The medium one is pre-installed.
Included are the following
elastomers, the Shore A ratings are:
Soft - Shore 50A
Medium - Shore 60A
Hard - Shore 70A
We recommend to match your max pressure
to the elastomer rating. We expect you to run lower
pressures with the 50A, this ensures its durability.
We also supply you with different preload springs to
adjust the feel of the preload. The medium strength one is fitted.
