1/ Assembling the brake cable

housing block then put the cable into the cable clip.
Press the brake cam half down and close the cable clip.
Cut the excess cable.
Adjust the setting using the brake lever setting key.
2/Changing the friction pads
Loosen the brake cable.
Remove the supporting screws from the caliper on the fork.
Remove the screws that fix the friction pads or lift and pull the plate directly
depending on the model.
Remove the pads and replace them in the same way.
Loosen the cam check nut, adjust the stroke using an Allen wrench then tighten the
nut.
Warning :
To maintain efficient breaking and limit wear in the rims, replace the pads as
soon as wear becomes too noticeable. A worn pad is one where the fluting or
the notches can no longer be seen.
The sides that run against the pads should also be checked. As soon as signs of
the side opening or loss of parallelism start to appear, change your rim.
Disc brakes become hot and may cause burning. After breaking, wait for about
30
minutes
