Brake Shoe Replacement

Check your brakes shoes monthly for any indication

of wear. If the pads are worn past the “wear line”

indication (See diagram), the brake shoes need

to be replaced. Always replace the brake shoes

in pairs - never one side only.

For replacement, disconnect the holding mechanism specific to your brake type -

i.e. a hexagonal nut or an Allen screw arrangement, or a combination of both. Remove

the worn brake shoes paying careful attention to the order and position in which the

various curved washers and spacers are attached. Fit the new brake shoes, and tune

the angle and the clearance to the rim as required. Typically, before the rim clearance

can be adjusted the control cable anchor bolt needs to be loosened and then the cable

adjusters fasten and the cable tensioned. (Refer to the Installation/Adjustment section

relevant to your brake type for detailed instructions.) Once the adjustments are complete,

securely fasten the brake shoes in place and test that the brakes are functioning correctly

Do not ride the bicycle until the brakes are working effectively

Disc Brake Adjustment (Mechanical)

Ensure the fixing bolts are securely fastened to the disc

brake mount.

Adjust the callipers’ active lever as close to the rotor

as possible.

3. Adjust the neutral side with the relevant adjuster.

If your disc brakes allow adjustment of the calliper toe-in, check:

1. The clearance is even from front to back.

2. The inner cable fixing bolt is securely tightened.

Please see brake manufacturers manual (if supplied) for detailed adjustment instructions.

Disc Brake Adjustment (Hydraulic)

Disassembly of hydraulic disc brakes systems can be a complex procedure and therefore,

it is best undertaken by a professional bicycle mechanic. However, as hydraulic systems

are usually self-adjusting, you should be able to manage any centring of the unit to the

rotor that is required. Refer to the specific brand manual (if supplied) for more detailed

instructions relating to further adjustments or fluid bleeding. Note: Check all rotor bolts

at the time of assembly
