Models)

1. Pull the brake lever to simulate a panic stop, and then

release the brake lever. Repeat this at least ten times. This

assures that all components are properly seated.

2. Pull the brake lever until the brake pads just touch the rim.

3. Measure the clearance between the brake lever and the

handlebar grip. This distance should be 25 mm (0.98 in.).

4. Loosen the adjuster locknut, and turn the barrel adjuster

(Figure 15) as necessary to adjust clearance to within

specification. (Turning the adjuster out tightens the inner wire;

turning the adjuster in loosens the wire.) When the brake

lever is within specification, tighten the adjuster locknut.

5. If you cannot adjust the free play to specification at the

brake lever adjuster, tighten the adjuster locknut and perform

the following:

a. Loosen the adjuster locknut (A, Figure 16) at the

caliper, and turn the barrel adjuster (B, Figure 16) as

necessary to adjust clearance within specification.

Tighten the adjuster locknut.
