Brakes
Test your brakes by standing next to your bike, pull both brakes and rock the bike back and forth. The bike should not roll and the brake pads should
remain firmly in place.
Does your UNI MK Classic/Swing feel solid? If you feel a clunk with each forward or backward movement of the bike, you probably havea loose head-
set. Have your dealer check it. Note that for certain disc brakes you may feel a bit of play when attempting to rock the bike back and forth. These are
caused by the built-in clearances between the brake pads and the brake caliper to allow for thermal expansion and is considered normal.
In these cases, it's not a loose headset.
Disc brakes have a disc rotor (4) and a disc caliper (3). Pads inside the disc caliper squeeze the disc rotor to slow the wheel but can get very hot under
use. Do not touch them immediately after riding.
Which lever operates the front brake and which lever operates the rear brake varies depending on the country. For countries such as United Kingdom
and Japan, the left lever operates the rear brake and the right lever operates the Front brake. For USA, Germany and most other countries the right
lever operates the rear brake and the left lever operates the front brake.
We always send out bikes with the german configuration (L is front brake, R is rear brake).
Be careful not to damage the disc rotor or disc caliper when changing wheels or by pulling the brake levers when the disc rotor
is not aligned. Make sure to test the braking power before heading into traffic. It can be much more powerful
than what you are used to.
Squeezing the Lever too fast can lead to unintended sudden stopping and cause you to crash or get rear ended.
