THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THIS VIDEO! I paid good money repeatedly to bike shops and services in Bucharest (Romania) and they simply couldn't make an satisfactory adjustment to my rear brakes, they were not centered, on one side the pad touched the rim slightly at every rotation on one spot (not in the bike shop but after a few km) and on the other it was too far away from the rim. I simply centered using the little screws according to your video and the brakes are the best now. How the guys, supposedly bike mechanics, were not able to do it is beyond me. They were either stupid or lazy or both. When I came back and told them the problem, they simply stated that my e-bike is atypical, it's too wide, and they couldn't do a better job. I did it myself using your video and I have two left hands, I'm a computer programmer, never the slight inclination to be a handy man. The explanations and the way your video was recorded, with the right angles, is simply AWESOME. You are the best! Like and subscribe!

Thank you so much for this video!! I’ve been struggling to find the answer to how to adjust my brakes cuz I’m still learning about bikes and how to fix them up. I’ve been pointed to adjusting that tension screw by damn near everyone, but I knew that wasn’t the problem. Seeing the tension on the line setting the brakes too close is what the real issue is! You said it bang on “if you set the brakes too close if the rim gets out of true it’ll rub on it.” That’s the part is needed to adjust!! Goodness gracious I cannot believe it took me this long to hunt down the answer and also the best and easiest way to understand it. I’m literally about to go outside and adjust my brakes before I head out on another ride. Bless you for being so clear and simple!! Amazing teacher ✨🙏🏽✨💯

At 9:32 . It's easier, if you don't have a 4th hand tool, to disconnect (your brakes allow for this) the return springs of the brake arms. That way you don't have to fight against their tension while trying to make a very fine adjustment of the arms' position. Afterwards, just reengage the springs. This is a great video!

please people, before you start with this, make sure the wheel is exactly centered so the rim is exactly in the middle. that's what they forget to tell you in this video, where their wheel is off centre a few millimetres to the left side of the bike. and then you'll never get it right. And don't forget that a new inner cable can stretch a couple of millimetres the first few times it's pulled. that's also not mentioned in this video.

@drumguy1384 8 жыл бұрын

If no amount of screw adjustment will do it could be that the spring on one side has gotten too straight. If you disengage the spring on the weaker side (the side that's rubbing) you can manually bend it out with your hands to increase its tension, then re-engage and adjust. Hope that helps.
