TECHNICAL INFORMATIONS
What tools will you need?
In this procedure, you may need:
A pad spreader, brake cleaner and a microfibre cloth.
Running in bike brake pads is an essential procedure to ensure good braking performance:
Running in optimises the grip between the pads and discs by gradually heating them up.
Before you start, clean your discs thoroughly and replace them if you are fitting new pads.Put on your helmet and a speedometer or GPS, then ride on a safe, flat and dry road.
The running-in procedure consists of braking gradually several times at increasing speeds:
It is recommended that you alternate between the front and rear brakes and follow three key steps:Brake gradually from 15 to 5 km/h, then from 20 to 5 km/h, and finally from 25 to 5 km/h, repeating ten times for each speed.Between each phase, allow the system to cool by riding slowly for a few metres without braking.
Some additional tips for running in brake pads:
When running in, remember to use only one brake at a time to avoid overheating the pads.
Choose a flat road, avoid sudden braking, and allow yourself plenty of time:the running-in process can take up to half an hour.If you notice rainbow marks on the discs or reduced effectiveness, your pads may be 'glazed'.If this happens, visit a Decathlon workshop for a check.
