1. See the manufacturer’s instructions for installation, operation and care of your brakes. If you do not have the manufacturer’s instructions, see an authorized dealer or contract the brake manufacturer.
2. Riding with improperly adjusted or worn brake pads is dangerous and can result in injury or death.
3. Applying brakes too hard or too suddenly can result in loss of control. Sudden or extreme application of the front brake may pitch the rider over the handlebars, which may result in serious injury or death.
Familiarize yourself with which brake lever controls the front and which brake lever controls the rear wheel.
Make sure you can comfortably reach the brake lever and squeeze the brake with sufficient force.
Make sure the brake caliper release cam is in the closed position before riding.
If you are unfamiliar with the operation and use of the brakes, consult a professional bicycle mechanic.
