1. Riding Brompton in cold days, especially pay special attention to the brake system.The Brompton has a dual-pivot brake system that is not only sensitive and safe, but also easy to adjust and maintain.Aluminum rims are not only lightweight, but also ensure good braking in wet weather.
2. Brake easily and timely only when the brake lever is suitable for your hand control.You need to adjust the Brompton brake lever according to the size of your own hand.
There is a machine meter screw next to the brake lever, which is rotated clockwise with the inner hexagon wrench, which can shorten the distance between the brake bar to the handlebars, and spin loose counterclockwise to increase the distance.
3. The cleaning of the rim brake surface very affects the brake sensitivity. How to do it?Spray the brake cleaner on the cloth and wipe the rim brake surface, and clean up the dirt accumulated at the brake pads.
4. After finding your own suitable seat height, install the height limit insert, which can easily and accurately restore to the debugging height every time the Brompton is launched.
First, find the seat height for you, mark the bottom of the bar and the junction of the frame, then pull the seat bar to the limit, push the height insert back to the seat bar, parallel the bottom of the two; find the slot and the mark mark on the pole.Then remove the saddle and transfer seat, remove the seat bar and clean it with the height limit insert; align the raised keys at the grooves on the frame seat pipe and install back to the seat bar.This way, every time you expand the Brompton and pull the bar to the limit, your seat is high.
5. The right saddle tilt Angle can give you the strongest support.Usually 0~6 degrees forward is more appropriate, but the best inclination varies from person to person and needs to be adjusted slowly.When inserting the cushion transfer seat into the seat bar, reach the middle of the small diameter part of the seat bar, ensuring that there is enough space between the bottom of the saddle and the seat bar.In addition, the transfer seat should be inserted into the entire smooth part of the seat bar, to ensure a stable saddle.Then use the socket wrench to loosen the transfer seat slightly, and you can move the saddle for debugging when feeling effortless.Finally, tighten the transfer seat screw to the gauge torque.
