Hello! How can we help you?

How can I remove the cable/cable head from the brake lever?

I'm trying to remove the heads of each brake cable from both levers. I can't push it out sideways without hitting the parking brake locking mechanism. The cables are removed from the body of the walker, as I'm replacing the drums and brake shoes on my Trionic. 



Do I need to remove anything else to have easy access to slide the heads out of their slots from the side?

In order to remove the cable/cable head from the brake lever, please do as follows:

  1. Loosen the two screws that clamp the Veloped U-shaped grip bar (behind the rubber grip) and pull the grip bar out of the vertical 'grip post'. 
  2. Loosen the small screw on the rubber grip 'clamp', and remove the grip. 
  3. Loosen the Allen key screw on the side of the brake lever a little (max one turn), and you can slide off the brake lever from the grip tube. 
  4. Detach the rear wheel. 
  5. The main body of the brake lever, its cable adjuster screw and the nut on the adjuster screw all have a slot for the brake cable. By aligning these slots, you can unhook the old brake cable from the brake lever if you turn/pull the lever to the very end of its motion range (fully pulled). 
  6. Attach the new brake cable to the brake lever as described above but in reverse.

Attach the brake cable end to the brake, and read the instructions here on how to centre the brake.

    My husband has osteoporosis of the spine. Purchasing the Trionic Veloped has made a wonderful difference to both our lives. My husband can now step out and walk in a much more upright position. I no longer have the anxiety that he may fall, or that w…

  • Fantastic…

    I bought this as I have mobility issues and the rollator I currently have is totally unsuitable for uneven ground. I find it so much easier to use and have received many remarks about it.…

  • Walker 14er…

    Delivery very poor. Incompetent driver failed first ‘attempt’ and couldn’t find my door bell, simple enough; on his second ‘deliver without fail’ journey. Miserable performance by your delivery team!…

  • Mrs V Potts…

    I purchased this for my husband, but he will not use it, don't know why as he hardly walks anywhere as he is not very steady on his feet. Having said that I keep thinking I will make use of it myself. At the moment I have only moved it a short way, b…

  • Finally…

    The Veloped allows me to go out again.
    It is stable and has maximum off-road mobility. Very important for me is the possibility to rest now and then.
    I would definitely buy it again.
    The cane holder is very practical.…

  • FREEDOM…

    I love my Trionic Rollator Walker. The solid wheels and wide base allow me to walk over rough basements and bumps as if they were smooth as glass. I also appreciate how stable the walker is, because that makes me feel safe. I don't have any problems …

    The Veloped Sport. I've had mine for a month now and am thrilled with it! I was a keen walker before I broke my pelvis and ended up with permanent nerve damage in my leg. I have been working to get as mobile as possible. Although I can walk with one …

  • Very good choice for a disabled girl, almost 9 years old...!…

    We bought the Trionic Veloped to our daughter. She is nine years old this summer so Veloped is not really suited for her size yet. But, we still think it works very well in terrain and that was exactly what we were searching, for such a long time!

  • Well-designed Veloped Backpack…

    This backpack has plenty of pockets, fits the Veloped basket shape perfectly. The straps are comfy for wearing the backpack. Good quality fabric.

    I use the backpack regularly and it fits my shopping as well as personal items that I need to car…
