L L The.following.assembly.steps.always.refer.to.the.front.wheel.brake,.but.
they.are.identical.for.the.rear.wheel.brake.unless.otherwise.specified.

brake.lever),.cantilever.sockets.and.wheels.(brake.track.areas).fit.your.
brake.– see.

Danger of accident due to restricted or blocked steering movement
because brake hose is too short or too long.
Î – Make.sure.that.there.is.full.steering.movement.in.both.directions.
Î – Keep.the.length.of.the.brake.hose.as.short.as.possible.and.as.long.as.
necessary.
Oil loss.
The.brake.hose.may.have.to.be.disconnected.from.the.brake.cylinder.for.
the.following.steps.
Î – Do.not.actuate.the.brake.lever.if.the.brake.hose.is.disconnected.
Î – Handle.the.open.brake.hose.carefully.–.do.not.shake.it,.knock.it.or.hit.it.
Î – Have.clean,.absorbent.and.lint-free.cloths.ready.–.wipe.any.leaking.oil.
away.immediately.
Unusable brake hose – because it is too short.
Î – Before.shortening.the.brake.hose.make.sure.that.the.handlebar.and.
stem.are.in.their.final.position.and.do.not.need.to.be.raised,.extended.
or.adjusted.in.any.way.
Î – If.required,.allow.a.little.longer.at.first.–.you.can.always.shorten.it.a.bit.
more.but.you.can't.extend.it!
L L A.thin.wire.may.be.helpful.for.inserting.the.brake.hose.through.the.
bicycle.frame...
Run.it.in.the.opposite.direction.through.the.outlet.to.the.inlet.of.the.
frame.and.fix.it.to.the.end.of.the.brake.hose.with.adhesive.tape..Do.not.
insert.the.wire.into.the.brake.hose.–.you.will.lose.oil!..
Carefully.pulling.with.the.wire.and.pushing.the.brake.hose.at.the.same.
time.will.make.it.easier.to.find.the.outlet.
L L Before.installing.your.brake.decide.which.brake.lever.(right.or.left).you.
want.to.allocate.to.your.front.wheel.or.rear.wheel.
L L When.installing.the.brake.hose.for.the.rear.wheel.brake.use.the.practi-
cal.MAGURA.hose.holder.–.available.in.different.models.
L L Installation.and.setting.of.the.brake.cylinders.can.be.made.significantly.
easier.if.the.corresponding.wheel.is.mounted.in.the.frame.or.fork.–.
preferably.without.a.tire.fitted.

. ) First.tighten.the.upper.clamping.screw.. ( 1 ) ,.then.the.lower.one. ( 2 ) with.a.
tightening.torque.of. max. 4 Nm (35 lbf·in).
О О The.clamping.screw.is.in.contact.at.the.top,.there.is.a.gap.at.the.
.bottom!.

L L The.brake.lever.can.be.rotated.by.hand.when.forced..It.is.advantageous.
if.the.brake.lever.can.rotate.in.the.event.of.a.fall..This.reduces.the.
danger.of.irreparable.damage.to.the.handlebar.
