ASSEMBLY
Check your Brakes
Press each brake lever to make sure that there is no binding and that the brake pads press hard enough on the rims to stop the bike.
The brake pads should be adjusted so they are 1mm to 2mm away from the rim when the brakes are not applied. Brake pads should
be centered on the rim and the rear portion of each brake pad should be about 0.5 – 1.0mm farther from the rim than the front portion
of the brake pad.
Do not ride the bicycle until the brakes are functioning properly.
To test, apply the brakes while trying to push the bike forward to
make sure they will stop the bicycle.
Brake pad aligned with the rim surface Pad and rim should be parallel.
