DISK BRAKES

Some models of bicycles may be equipped with disk brakes. The set up and maintenance of disk brakes vary
by model and manufacturer, please read the instructions supplied with your bicycle for the specific instructions
and warnings for the disk brakes supplied on your bicycle before adjusting your brakes or riding your bicycle.
Disk brakes require breaking in before full breaking power is achieved. While the break in period varies by
model and manufacturer, a distance of 13 miles or 40 to 50 applications is the minimum before using the
brakes for downhill conditions, for sudden stops, or other serious braking. Please read the specific instructions
and warnings for the disk brakes supplied on your bicycle before riding your bicycle. Disk brakes are extremely
powerful. You should take extra care in becoming familiar with brakes and exercise particular care when
using them.
WARNING
DISK GETS HOT! Severe injury could result from
contact with the hot disk. Mind your legs, as well
as your hands.
