Installation Instructions:

1. Clean rim surface before installing new pads
2. Place new Kool-Stop Pads into brake caliper arms and finger tighten nuts
3. Squeeze brake lever to allow correct pad to rim alignment; tighten the nuts.  Do not over tighten
4. Break In Pads.  Full stopping power may not develop until after several braking applications have conditioned the rim surface.  Proper "toe in" alignment prevents brake chatter
5. Check the pad and rim alignment after the pads are broken in and after every ride
6. Important: Do not ride the bike until the brakes are checked and functioning properly.  Designed for bicycle use only.  All Kool-Stop Pads meet or exceed C.P.S.C and D.I.N bicycle standards
