| Brake tuning for cateye It may not seem like it but one of the most important parts of your cateye is brakes. Ok starting off you need...
A 5mm alan wrench .
Yes thats all you need actually. So on to the fun part. When looking at your rear brake you see your brake cable. Its attached to a black looking arm. Using the alan wrench loosen that bolt that is on the black arm 3/4 way and then pull the arm as much as you can clockwise. Then hold the cable that comes out of the arm. While doing that pull the arm counter clockwise, depending on how powerfull you want your brake, turn the arm to the left more for more braking power. And right for less power. Now you dont want too much power for your brakes. Once arm is set to your way tighten the bolt with your 5mm as much as possible.
I reccomend for tuning brakes to do a 8-0mph test so you dont go over your handle bars incase you tune them too high. Also you tune the front the same as the back. |
