to prepare the brake housing
1. Check the length of the housings.
If appropriate, use the old housing as a guide. The
correct length of housing should allow full rotation
of the handlebar and should not snag on the front
reflector.
2. Square the ends of the housings with a file or
bench grinder.
If necessary, use a sharp probe to open the end
of the housing liner to eliminate cable friction.
Where appropriate, install brake housing end caps.
The special housing end caps with the extension
are intended to guide the cable through the barrel
adjuster (Figure 7).
to install the brake cables
1. Where the cables run inside housing, lubricate
them with a light grease or heavy oil.
2. Slide the housings up the cables until the hous-
ings are firmly engaged in the lever.
Some brake levers require special housing ferrules
or cable guides inside the lever. If unsure, consult
your dealer.
3. Thread the cable through the stops, cable protec-
tor donuts, and housing to the cable clamp bolt.
4. Make sure the leaded end of the cable is properly
seated in the brake lever (Figure 6).
5. Attach the cable to the brake and tighten the cable
clamp bolt (Figure 7) to 50-70 lb•in (5.7-7.9 Nm).
