INSTALLING THE FRONT BRAKE
5. Slide the wedge down to align the bottom of the pre-load
slot with the top line. While you hold the wedge flat with
a 9mm wrench, tighten the cable clamp screws with a
T10 Torx wrench.

6. Reinstall the wedge between the brake arm rollers.
(See Step 2.)
7. Install the front wheel.
8. If needed, replace the brake pads to correspond to the
rim material (carbon vs. aluminum). The pad retention
screw must be installed to retain the pads.
9. Loosen the pad carrier bolts, lightly engage the brake,
and position the pads on the rim. Tighten the pad
carrier bolts.
10. Squeeze the brake lever fully to seat the housing and
stretch the brake cable.
11. Use the pad width spacing bolts symmetrically to
adjust the spacing between the pads and rim.
Keeping the brake wedge centered, there should be
about 1.5mm clearance between a pad and the rim.
You’ll center precisely in the next steps.
NOTE
Do not use the wedge height to adjust for rim width. If the
wedge is positioned incorrectly, it may rub on the cover.
1.5 mm
12. Symmetrically adjust the centering bolts to adjust
lever feel.
13. Use the appropriate centering bolt to make final
centering adjustment (ex: tightening the drive side
centering bolt will pull the drive side pad away
from the rim).
Installing the vector wings
and brake cover
1. Remove the front wheel.
2. Carefully slide the vector wings on either side of
the head tube, then tighten the bolt to max 2Nm.
NOTE
Holding the sides of the vector wings flush with the
recess on the frame while you tighten the bolt can
improve alignment.

Make sure the brake cable does not interfere
with the brake cover.
