4. Производот завршиview

The SRAM Flat Mount 20F Rear Bracket is a precision-engineered component designed to facilitate the use of a 160mm brake rotor on bicycle frames equipped with flat mount brake caliper interfaces. It is constructed from durable synthetic fiber and features a multi-color finish. The bracket effectively offsets the brake caliper to accommodate the larger rotor size, enhancing braking power and modulation.

5. Поставување и инсталација

Follow these steps for proper installation of the SRAM Flat Mount 20F Rear Bracket:

1. Подгответе ја рамката: Ensure the flat mount interface on your bicycle frame is clean and free of debris.
2. Поставете ја заградата: Align the SRAM Flat Mount 20F Rear Bracket with the mounting points on your bicycle frame's rear chainstay or seatstay. The "REAR 160" marking on the bracket should be visible and oriented correctly.
3. Инсталирајте ги монтажните завртки: Insert the two stainless bracket mounting bolts through the bracket and into the frame's threaded inserts. If washers are provided, place them under the bolt heads.
4. Првично затегнување: Hand-tighten the bolts to secure the bracket in place.
5. Install Brake Caliper: Mount your flat mount brake caliper onto the bracket using the appropriate caliper mounting bolts (not included with this bracket).
6. Конечен вртежен момент: Using a torque wrench, tighten the bracket mounting bolts to the torque specifications provided by your bicycle frame manufacturer. Similarly, tighten the brake caliper mounting bolts to the brake caliper manufacturer's specifications. Refer to your frame and brake manuals for precise torque values.
7. Brake Alignment: After installation, ensure the brake caliper is properly aligned with the 160mm rotor. Adjust as necessary to prevent rotor rub and ensure optimal braking performance.

Забелешка: Always refer to your bicycle frame and brake caliper manufacturer's instructions for specific torque values and alignment procedures.

6. Одржување

Regular maintenance will ensure the longevity and safe operation of your SRAM Flat Mount 20F Rear Bracket:

• Периодична инспекција: Visually inspect the bracket for any signs of cracks, bends, or damage, especially after impacts or heavy use.
• Проверка на завртки: Periodically check the tightness of all mounting bolts (bracket to frame, and caliper to bracket) to ensure they remain at the specified torque. Loose bolts can lead to poor braking performance or component failure.
• Чистење: Keep the bracket and surrounding area clean from dirt, mud, and road grime. Use a mild soap and water solution, then rinse thoroughly and dry. Avoid harsh chemicals that could damage the finish or material.

7 Смена на проблеми

If you encounter issues with your brake system after installing the bracket, consider the following:

• Rotor Rub: If the brake rotor rubs against the caliper pads, ensure the caliper is properly aligned. This often involves loosening the caliper mounting bolts slightly, squeezing the brake lever to center the caliper, and then re-tightening the bolts while holding the lever.
• Loose Braking: Check all bolts (bracket to frame, caliper to bracket) for proper torque. A loose bracket can cause inconsistent braking.
• Невообичаени звуци: Investigate any creaking or grinding noises. This could indicate loose components, contamination, or worn brake pads/rotor.

If problems persist, consult a professional bicycle mechanic.
