Combi Brake Lever Needs Adjustment

Post by Alibally »

I got the brake cable adjusted at my first service . I don't think it cost any extra so it couldn't have taken that long.

I don't take my bike to the dealer for service, so mine was never adjusted before today. Doing it myself took about 15 min once I knew what I was doing and had the proper tools for the job.

Awesome, I need to do this. My brake light occasionally stays on because the linked brake doesn't pop back fully. Such a stupid place to put the adjuster though. :roll:
