COCKPIT ADJUSTMENT
Brake lever reach adjustment on URBAN JUNGLE city bikes.
With most brake systems the distance between the brake levers and the handlebar grips is adjustable. This gives in particular riders with small hands (a) the convenience of bringing the brake levers closer to the handlebars.
On most bikes there is a small adjusting screw near the point where the brake cable of a cable brake enters the brake lever unit or at the lever itself. Turn this bolt clockwise and watch how the lever adjusts as you do so. Note that the brake lever has a free travel of one third before the pressure point of the brake is reached.
Hydraulic brakes are also fitted with adjusting devices at the brake lever (b). There are different systems (a+b). Ask your URBAN JUNGLE dealer for advice or read the manuals of the component manufacturers.
When adjusting the lever reach, make sure the first phalanx of the index finger reaches around the brake lever (c). Check the proper adjustment and functioning of the brake system subsequently, as described in the chapter «Brakes» and in the manuals of the component manufacturers.
WARNING
Make sure your child cannot pull the brake levers all the way to the handle-bars. Your maximum braking force must be reached short of this point.
SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
In the case of hydraulic brakes and disc brakes follow the manual of the brake manufac- turer. If you are in doubt or if you have any questions, contact your URBAN JUNGLE dealer.
