BEDDING IN PROCEDURE:

WARNING: All FORMULA brake systems re-

quire a break in (bedding in) period to obtain

top performance. We recommend running the

bike on a flat surface at a speed of 30 Km/h and

braking it at least 50 times allowing it to come

to a full a stop (taking the required precau-

tions) before considering the system broken in

and fully efficient.

CAUTION: When assembling the fasteners, always make sure they are torqued down

to the correct torque setting.

CAUTION: Use a dynamometric wrench provided with the required hexagon or

TORX® inserts to install the screws.

ATTENTION: When transporting the bike with the wheels off, always fit the relevant

spacer between the brake pads.

CAUTION: Never apply the lever without the pads in place or with the wheel removed.

If this does happen you will have to press the brake pads back into the caliper with a

clean flat-blade screwdriver.
