Deda Elementi brake pads for carbon rims.
BRAKE PADS MOUNTING
• Remove original pads from the brakesets of your
bicycle and replace them with those blue color pro-

rect mounting direction of brake pads by watching
the indications directly present on the pad surface.
• If present on the brake pad holder, tighten the secu-

Before usign the bicycle, always make sure that the
installed brakesets installed work correctly and brake
pads have been mounted according to the wheels
user's manual. Frequently inspect the brake pads and,
if necessary, remove metal ships or other foreign debris
from their surfaces. In rain conditions the braking power
decrease so that the braking distance of the bicycle will
increase considerably. Once the wear limit of the brake
pads has been reached (a Wear Limit is indicated on
the pad surface), discontinue riding the bicycle and
replace them with original Deda Elementi spare parts.
WARNING: The brake pads installation require a
specifc knowledge of the product. In case of doubts

qualified bicycle technician. The incorrect installation of
the brake pads can cause serious accident and injury
for the user.
WARNING: Metal debris and foreign objects included
into the brake pad surface will compromise the braking
performance and cause severe rim damages that may
result in wheel failure and cause serious accident to
the user.

to fully obtain the maximum performance advantages

systems causing damages irreparably or malfunfion of
internal parts of the hub. Never use solvents, chemicl
products, petrol or similar substances, over the hubs
that can damage seals and rubber gaskets or remove
the grease from the bearings completely.
After the bicycle washing, dry every parts and
components avoiding to store water into the hollow
points of the wheel ( for instance inside the rim and
hub).
Frequently check the wear status od the wheels parts
and if necessary make the maintenance and/or parts
replacement through the official Deda Elementi dealers.
The recommended service intervals depend on the use
and using condition of the wheels. It is recommended
to make an inspection after each riding season or every
time in case of bearing problems, wheel out of center or
damaged parts are apparent. Since specific tools and
experience are necessary for hub maintenance, wheel
trueing or parts replacement it is recommended that
the service should be done by official Deda Elementi
