How do I adjust the brake cable tension on my Veloped/Walker?

To ensure that you can use your Veloped/Walker safely, with time you need to adjust the brakes as they get worn. Adjusting the brakes does not require any tools and you’ll also find instructions in your manual.

Just follow these simple steps: 

Step 1. Adjust the adjustment screw on the brake lever with your fingers. If you screw the adjustment screw counter-clockwise (outwards) you tighten the brake, and if you screw the adjuster screw clockwise (inwards) you loosen the brake.

Step 2.After you have adjusted the brake tension with the adjuster screw, fix it in place by screwing the black nut clockwise until it stops against the main body of the brake lever.

Step 3. Test the brake function to ensure that you can both engage the motion brake and also the parking brake.

    And it is nice and light.
    We are happy to recom…

  • Getting back into the garden…

    The Veloped Trek has allowed me to get back into the garden, see the plants, even prune an overgrown bush, hang out washing (exciting) and just experience my large backyard again.

  • Finally more freedom of movement and safety…

    After several health challenges, I find walking difficult, especially on uneven surfaces. I hardly ever went outside anymore. I particularly missed walking in the woods. Now my family has ordered me the Veloped Sport. At last I can go for a walk out…

  • Independent walking again…

    I have had my Veloped Tour for just over a month and am absolutely delighted with it. Apart from back issues which had limited my walking, this year I have a balance problem. The Trionic has enabled me to get back to enjoying the countryside both on …
