How do I center the Trionic brake ?

If the rear wheel on your Veloped/Walker doesn’t turn free, it could be that the brake is not centered and it rubs against the brake hub (brake surface). By centering the brake, there will be free space between the brake and the brake hub, and the wheel spins free again.

Just follow these simple steps: 

Step 1:Locate the top hole in the brake cover that gives you access to the M5 screw that holds the brake, by using a 4mm Allen key.

Step 2:Loosen the screw 2 turns (anti-clockwise).

 


 Loosen the brake screw 2 full turns

Step 3: Pull the brake lever tight and hold it.

Step 4: While holding the brake lever pulled, tighten the brake screw with the 4mm Allen key.


Pull the brake lever and hold it. While holding the brake lever, tighten the brake screw.    

Step 5: Test the brake clearance by spinning the wheel and checking that there is no rubbing between the brake and the brake hub.

NOTE:The brake lever in the picture may differ from the brake lever on your Veloped/Walker.

  • Quality…

    The Veloped is actually intended for my wife, but occasionally I use it too (92). Our satisfaction is probably best expressed by the fact that we will probably buy another one.

    Sincerely,

  • Finally one that does what it should.…

    I now own three rollators. This is my first one from Trionic. The first rollator from another company sounded like clanging metal as I walked along. It also got caught on all the broken pavements where I live and was therefore unstable. The second on…

  • Bought for mother, she loves it.…

    My 87-year-old mother with a false hip and two false knees saw this and thought it would be far more comfortable than the standard one she has. She loves it. Easy and comfortable. Goes up kerbs easily. Not small to pack away or get on buses but great…

    The Walker is perfectly suited for cobblestones and is very easy to handle! It is more flexible than the conventional walkers and offers much more comfort; we are highly satisfied!…

  • My Veloped has improved my quality of life unbelievably!…

    Probably a little too early for a full review yet as I have only had my 14” medium nearly two weeks but already it has accompanied me on a two day mountain First Aid Course at Plas-y-Brenin in North Wales where it behaved impeccably clambering over b…

    Excellent product and very good pre-sales support. My only issue is I wish the seat was a little wider or that I was a little narrower!…
