Bontrager Road Brakeset Speed LimitTM Manuel Du Propriétaire

BefORe eveRy Ride: CheCkLiSt

Before every ride, check your bicycle and its brakes. If your brakes do not

pass inspection, readjust the brake system or take your bicycle to your dealer for

service.

Squeeze each brake lever toward the handlebar to make sure the brake moves

freely and stops the bicycle. If the brake lever can be pulled to the handlebar, the

brake is too loose (make sure the brake opening lever, Figure 1, is closed).

When the brakes are not applied, the brake pads should be 1 to 2 mm from the

rim. If the brake pads are too

close to the rim, the brake is

too tight. Brake pads should

be aligned with the rim sur-

face (Figure 2). If the brakes

are not properly adjusted,

follow the instructions in the

Adjustment section of this

manual or take your bicycle to

your dealer for service.

WaRninG

if your brakes are not working properly, you can lose control and
fall. inspect the brakes thoroughly before every ride. do not ride
the bicycle until any problem has been corrected.

ment to fit your bike, consult
