2.5.1 Brakes

Important comments and precautionary
measures:
Ask an approved O2feel reseller to carry out
maintenance work on brakes.
Do not use oily liquids on brake linings, surfaces
of wheel rim brakes, brake pads or disks. If you do,
this will hinder the performance of your brakes.
Only use original spare parts. Failure to do so runs
the risk of damaging or hindering the performance
of your bike.
To achieve good braking performance, only use
suitable brake linings for the rims. Failure to do so
may increase the braking distance and your brakes
will become worn more quickly.
Brake cables are subject to wear. Check them
regularly for wear and replace them if necessary.
Check to make sure the brake cable is not rusty or
frayed. Replace it if any defects are present. If it is
not replaced, the brakes might not work properly.
The battery must ALWAYS be locked for added security.
Visual check to make sure it is in position: Not
much space between the frame at the bottom of
the battery
Hydraulic disc brakes
Hydraulic disc brakes are fitted with a master
cylinder next to the manual brake lever. The
hydraulic fluid travels to the brake cylinders via a
brake line. The brake pads are pressed against the
disc by pistons. This type of brake is very powerful
and does not require much maintenance.
Whenever you adjust them, test the brakes by
pushing the bike firmly whilst applying the brake
lever. Only use your bike if it brakes safely.
Regularly check to make sure that the tubes and
outer casings are properly sealed, including every
time you go out. Tubes and fittings that are not
sealed properly may result in braking fluid leaks
and prevent the brakes from working properly.
If any fluid leaks from the braking system, stop
using the bike and get a specialist to carry out the
necessary repairs immediately.
If you cycle with the brakes in this state, there is a
significant risk of the brakes failing.
