Brakes - Charge City Owner's Manual

Brakes

Your bike is equipped with disc brakes, disc
brakes, which operate by squeezing a hub-
mounted disc between two brake pads. The
brakes are operated by way of a handlebar
mounted lever.
1. Riding with improperly adjusted brakes or
worn brake pads is dangerous and can result
in serious injury or death.
2. Applying brakes too hard or too suddenly
can lock up a wheel, which could cause you
to lose control and fall. Sudden or excessive
application of the front brake may pitch the
rider over the handlebars, which may result in
serious injury or death.
3. Disc brakes are extremely powerful. Take
extra care in becoming familiar with these
brakes and exercise particular care when
using them.
4. Disc brakes can get extremely hot with
extended use. Be careful not to touch a disc
brake until it has had plenty of time to cool.
5. See the brake manufacturer's instructions
for installation, operation and care of your
brakes. If you do not have the manufacturer's
instructions, see a bicycle dealer or contact
the brake manufacturer.
6. If replacing worn or damaged parts, use
only manufacturer approved genuine
replacement parts
