OTHER SEAT POST FIXINGS
• An Allen Key bolt or nut is used. You must use
the correct type of tool to make adjustments.

tube to at least the minimum insertion point.
• Ensure indexing lug on the seat post clamp bolt

BRAKES
The braking action of a bicycle is a function of
friction between brake surfaces, usually the brake
blocks and the wheel rims.
• Keep your wheel rims and brake blocks clean
and free of lubricants, waxes or polishes.
• Make sure that your hands can reach and
squeeze the brake levers comfortably.
• Most bicycles are tted with front and rear
hand brake levers and these are attached to
either CANTILEVER CALIPERS, SIDE PULL
CALIPERS, DISK or LINEAR BRAKES.
• When replacing both brake cables check
that the left hand cable is tted to the rear
brake when looking from the riding position.
