How to Adjust Your Mountain Bike Brakes: A Beginner’s Guide
To adjust mountain bike brakes, start by examining the brake pads to make sure they’re aligned properly and not excessively worn. Then, adjust the brake cables and brake levers to ensure the brakes are tight enough to stop the bike. Finally, test the brakes by riding the bike and making sure they stop the bike quickly and smoothly. It may take some trial and error to get the brakes adjusted correctly, but taking the time to do so will ensure better performance and safety while riding.
