BRAKES
bicycle brakes
bicycle brakes are one of the most important parts of a bicycle for the safety of every cyclist, since if these are in poor condition they could cause an accident. The reality is that keeping the brakes in good condition is a very simple process that, on many occasions, only requires changing the pads or adjusting the tension of the cables.
What bike brakes should I buy?
Deciding which type of brakes to buy depends on what you are going to use the bike for, for example:
- If yours is to be a road cyclist and you are looking for optimize the weight of your bike, the ideal for you is to buy rim or v brakes.
- On the other hand, if you prefer mountain biking or enduro, a bicycle disc brake will be better for you with wide rims, since you won''t lose stopping power from mud, dirt or moisture.
types of bicycle brakes
Currently, several types of bicycle brakes can be found on the market, such as:
- Disc brakes
These bicycle brakes can have a hydraulic or mechanical mechanism and it is becoming more and more common to find them. It is important to keep in mind that not all bicycles can be fitted with these brakes, since they must have the necessary anchors for this purpose. These are not generally used on the road, as they are heavier than the rest.
- rim brakes
These bicycle brakes are the most common and are so called because braking force is applied directly to the front or rear wheel rim, rubbing on it using pads or pads; They can be made of rubber, leather or metal.
- roller brakes
These bicycle brakes are also known as rod brakes as they they use rods instead of cables to be actuated. They can also be actuated through handlebar cranks, allowing the brake pads or pads to move upwards, putting pressure on the bicycle rim and causing it to brake.
What to take into account when buying your bicycle brakes?
There are several factors that you should consider when buying the brakes for your bicycle, such as:
- The weight
This is a factor to take into account, as it can affect the maneuverability and handling of the bike.
- The repair system
That a brake is easy to repair is important. In this sense, V-brakes are simpler and your spare parts are easier to get.
- Price
You should also consider the price of the type of brake you wish to purchase. Disc brakes are more expensive than v-brakes..
- braking power
If you are looking for a high stopping powerDisc brakes are better as they provide superior braking.
Parts that make up the brake
Bicycle brakes are made up of different elements that work together to stop the bicycle:
- Brake levers
This is the main point of contact between the bike and us, the actuator to activate the braking system.
- Brake bridges
This is the part of the braking system that is responsible for contracting the shoe against the tires, making a clamp function. Depending on the pressure we put on the levers, the brake bridge will be able to brake to a greater or lesser extent.
- brake cables
They are vital to the proper function and safety of the brake system. Its function is that of directly transmit the tension to the brake bridge by means of the force we exert on the lever.
- Brake shoes
This is the part of the braking system that comes into direct contact with the tire, with the aim of creating friction in relation to the applied force and braking the bicycle.
How to adjust a bicycle disc brake?
Take note of the following steps to adjust the bicycle disc brake:
1º Check the voltage
The first thing to do is tighten the lever and see if it has too much route without applying hardly any force; this means that it is necessary to tighten the cable.
2º Tension the cable from the brake caliper
Using a number 5 Allen key, we loosen the screw that is in the caliper holding the brake cable to, in this way, tighten the cable a little more. Once we have enough tension, we tighten the screw again.
3º Check the position of the caliper with respect to the disc
Proceed to slightly loosen the screws that fix the caliper to the brake support to a point where, when pressing the lever, it has lateral play. Care must be taken to look at the pads from above or below, making sure move the pickup until the disk is centered. Once we get this, we will tighten the caliper screws to ensure this position.
4º Adjust inner clamp position
It is important to make sure to adjust the position of the inner pad, that is, the one that does not move, so that it remains as close as possible to the disc without coming into contact with it.
