Vamoose Electric Cycles require a "bedding-in" procedure prior
to the first ride to ensure the most consistent, smooth and even
braking possible.
For disk brakes, the caliper that squeezes the brake pads on either
side of the rotor creates the friction to stop the cycle. Before your
first ride, it is important to apply the following bedding-in procedure
to ensure a smooth and even coating of the brake pad residue onto
the rotor surface. This procedure prevents scratching and scarring on
the pads and rotors, and removes any impurities from the brake pad
surface.
STEPS INVOLVED:
Find a safe riding area that will allow for moderate speed. Remain
seated during the entire procedure for optimum results.
• Accelerate the cycle to a
moderate speed
, then firmly
squeeze the brake levers until you are at walking speed.
Repeat this process about twenty times.
• Accelerate the cycle to a
faster speed
, then firmly squeeze
the brake levers until you are at walking speed. Repeat this
process about ten times.
•
Allow the brakes to cool down before your first ride.
Important Note:
Do not lock up the wheels at any point during the
bedding-in procedure.
Brake Bedding-In
DISC BRAKE ROTORS CAN BECOME WARM/HOT DURING USE. DO
NOT TOUCH WHEN HOT. AS WELL, BRAKES MAY NEED A LONGER
DISTANCE TO STOP WHEN WET. BRAKE EARLY AND AVOID SUDDEN
STOPS IN INCLEMENT CONDITIONS.
