INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
SAFETY WARNINGS
• Improper use of your bicycle's brake system may result in loss of control or an accident which could lead to severe injury. Because each bicycle
may handle differently, be sure to learn the proper braking technique (including brake lever force and bicycle control characteristics) for your
bicycle. Consult your bicycle dealer and/or the bicycle owner's manual and practice your riding and braking technique.
• Securely tighten the caliper brake mounting hardware to the specified torque.
When re-installing, apply blue thread retaining compound to the brake mounting bolts threads and tighten to specified torque using a calibrated
torque wrench.
• If the mounting bolt(s) become loose, this could cause the brake to work improperly and cause an accident. This is a particular danger with the
front wheel as the rider may be thrown forward resulting in serious injury.
• Brakes designed for use as rear brakes should not be used as front brakes and vice versa.
• Read the service instructions carefully prior to installing the brakes. Loose, worn or damaged parts may cause serious injury.
• Be careful not to allow any oil or grease to get onto the brake pads. If the pads become contaminated, they should be replaced and the braking
surface of the rims cleaned carefully, otherwise the brakes may not work effectively.
• Always make sure the front and rear brakes are working correctly before you ride the bicycle.
• The required stopping distance will be longer in wet conditions. Tires will also skid more easily, which can result in loss of control. Reduce your
speed by applying the brakes early and gently.
• If using standard Tektro brake pads in combination with ceramic-coated or carbon fiber rims, the pads will wear more quickly than normal. Pads
specifically designed for carbon fiber rim surfaces are available from Tektro/TRP Brakes. Also consult your rim manufacturer for approved pads.
• Pads should be replaced if they have worn to the point that the grooves are no longer visible.
• Parts are not guaranteed against natural wear or deterioration resulting from normal use or crash damage.
• If you are unfamiliar with any element of assembly or maintenance of this brake system, consult a qualified mechanic or contact Tektro / TRP
Brakes Customer Service.
TRP hydraulic disc brakes are warranted against manufacturing defects in materials and / or workmanship for a period of two ye ars from the date of original retail purchase.
Not covered under this warranty is damage resulting from improper installation, adjustment or maintenance, lack of maintenance, alterations, crashes or use judged by
