My brake is worn out, how do I change it?

If the brake pads on the brakes on your Veloped/Walker get worn out, you will need to replace the brakes in order to ensure a proper brake function.


Just follow these simple steps: 

Step 1. Detach the rear wheel.

Step 2. On the inside of the brake, unscrew and remove the 3 screws with a Phillips screwdriver and then remove the black plastic brake cover.

Step 3. Compress the brake and you can “unhook” and remove the brake cable from the brake, through the 2 cable slots.

Step 4. Unscrew and remove the screw that holds the brake with a 4mm Allen key.

Step 5. Attach the new brake with the 4mm Allen key.

Step 6. Push the cable adjuster screw into the brake, align its nut, and pull the brake cable end through the slot of the brake and attach it.

Step 7. Attach the black plastic cover with the 3 screws (Phillips screwdriver).

Step 8. Attach the wheel and test the brake.

Step 9. If the brake tension needs to be adjusted, please see separate instructions for this.
