insert into the small hole of the fork blade.

the fork blades.

Front Brake
Determine which type of brake your bike is equipped with and refer to
the appropriate assembly instructions. For more information on brake
adjustment and maintenance, refer to p. 68-71. A greater force is required
to activate the rear brake due to longer cable length. It is advisable to
mount the rear brake on the side of the stronger hand. It is important to
become familiar with the use of hand brakes. When properly adjusted,
hand brakes are an efficient brake system. Keep the rim and brake shoes
clean and free from wax, lubricant and dirt at all times. Keep brakes
properly adjusted and in good working condition at all times.
Open the brake lever and place the nipple end of the short brake cable
into the lever, than close the lever. Secure the ferrule against the lever
using the cable adjusting barrel.
1. Install left brake arm onto pivot on the frame, assemble
washer(C) and the inner hex fixing bolt(A) without fastening them
tightly. Repeat the same procedure to assemble the right arm.
2. Position the brake pads and make sure they match well with
the rim.
3. Turn 90º clockwire to fasten the tension adjuster washer(B)
with a 19mm wrench. Then fasten inner hex fixing bolt with a
5mm Allen key.
Assembly
4. Repeat 2 and 3 to fix the right arm.
5. Loosen the anchore bolt, then install the cable into the cable
anchor nut and then slide the cable under the tabbed washer of
anchor bolt.
6. Squeeze both brake arms together so the brake shoes hit the
rim, pull all slack out of the brake cable, and tighten the anchor
bolt.
7. Adjust the brake shoes using a 10mm wrench so that they are
parallel with the rim and are positioned 1-2mm away from the rim.
Several adjustmens may be necessary to achieve the correct
brake position.
Warning: Cut off any unnecessary cable, attache an end cap, and
hook it.
Note: Both arms are equipped with return spring. To obtain a normal
return spring tension, adjust the tension adjuster washer(B) by
rotating the washer(B) to the right or to the left.
