These brakes require breaking in! Ride and use the brakes gently for 13
miles before using the brakes in downhill conditions, for sudden stops,
or any other serious braking. Please be aware that your brake system will
change in performance throughout the wear-in process. The disc brake
should be cleaned before the first ride using rubbing alcohol. NEVER use oil
or similar products to clean your disc brake system.

Disc Brakes
If fitted with a front disc brake, the components should already
be attached. However, please check all connections before
attempting to ride the scooter. Secure tightly the 6 bolts that
hold the disc to the front wheel hub and the 2 bolts that hold
the brake mechanism to the fork. Insert the front wheel into the
fork dropouts ensuring that the disc fits into the brake mecha-
nism between the enclosed brake pads. Secure the front wheel
to the scooter by tightening the quick release mechanism and
clamping the lever to the closed position. Please refer to
section 6 for further instruction on quick release mechanisms.
Next, attach the cable to the brake lever by inserting the cable
end into the cable end holder after the barrel adjuster and lock
nut slots have been aligned with the cable end holder. After
the cable is secured to the lever, rotate the barrel adjuster and
lock nut so the slots no longer line up. Ensure the cable hous-
ing seats appropriately into the end of the barrel adjuster and
check for any kinks or damage.
Slide the exposed brake cable through the rotating rod located
on the caliper body and seat the housing into the same stop.
Insert the cable into the spring and spring boot.
Next, slide the cable through the cable anchor and pull all the
slack out. Secure the cable in place by tightening the bolts that
comprise the anchor assembly. Some disc brakes will have a
centering devise while others are a free-floating mechanism.
If your caliper body is equipped with centering bolts, apply the
brake lever after the cable has been connected. While engaging
the lever, tighten the centering bolts securely. This will center
the caliper body on the disc.
