Mechanical Disc Brake Kit

Description

Designed to equip the bicycle with a mechanical disc brake. What tools will you need? During this handling, you may need: A pad spacer, a brake cleaner and a microfibre cloth. Running in bicycle brake pads is an essential procedure to guarantee good braking efficiency: Running in aims to gently warm up the pads and discs to form an effective contact surface. Before starting, clean the discs, replace them if necessary and make sure you are properly equipped: Helmet and cycle computer or GPS. Carry out the operation on a flat, dry and clear road. Running in consists of braking progressively several times at increasing speeds: Correct running in depends on a good alternation of the brakes and compliance with specific steps: carry out ten progressive braking sessions from 15 to 5 km/h, then repeating at 20 and 25 km/h. Remember to take a short pause between each step to allow the disc and calliper to cool down properly. A few more tips on running in brake pads: To preserve the brakes during running in, use only one brake at a time, without sudden braking. Choose flat terrain for greater comfort. Running in can last up to 30 minutes, be patient. If you notice a decrease in performance or coloured marks on the discs, your pads are likely «glazed». In this case, consult an expert at the Decathlon workshop. Mechanical disc brake kit for greater power and progression. Compatibility 6-hole disc hub, fork and frame with standard/Postmount mounting.
