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.

  • How ever did I manage without this?!…

    I am very pleased with my purchase of Trionic Veloped Trek. I was initially concerned as to how useful it would be as I needed something that would cope with nature reserves. I need not have worried, this copes with everything I throw at it - even d…

  • Finally, it is possible to be active in a relaxed way again!…

    At the age of 54, due to a sudden illness, I went in a very short time from being an active athlete to someone who only walks unsteadily, with small, wide-legged steps and in pain. This slow and forced walking also caused me severe Achilles tendiniti…

  • Excellent product…

    This has been a life-changer for me. I suffer from a back problem, which seriously restricted my walking. Using the Trionic Trek I can comfortably walk about 2 miles. I take the occasional rest using the seat which is a bonus. The design and finish o…
