6 How to ride
6�1 How to brake
© The left brake lever operates the front brake.
© The right brake lever operates the rear brake.
To get the most out of your disc brakes, please note the following points:
© Your child should always apply both brakes at the same time.
© Optimal braking performance depends on the surface. In most cases, use 70% of the front brake and 30%
of the rear.
© When descending, make sure you pump the brakes rather than having a consistent hold on them because
extended periods of braking will cause overheating.
© Pulling on the brakes for a long period can cause the whole braking system, including the rotors and uid, to
overheat. This impacts the braking performance and could lead to potential failure.
© Depending on the surface and conditions, braking distance may vary. On wet and slippery surfaces in par-
ticular, make sure that the rider accounts for a longer braking distance.
