Front brake adjustment
The front brake should be adjusted to suit the
rider's preference; but free play at the brake
lever pivot point should be 5 - 8 mm (0.2
- 0.3 in). Adjustment is accomplished at the
front brake hub. To adjust, turn the adjuster
clockwise to reduce play; turn it counter-
clockwise to increase play.
