![]() Replace snipped zip ties. Secure the cables with zip ties and trim them to be flush and smooth.Once the alcohol dries, the grip should not move easily. Twist the grip into place and reinstall the end cap. Apply a small amount of isopropyl alcohol to the handlebar. Reinstall the handlebar grip. Orient the grip so the narrower end points toward the center of the bike.Plug in the throttle connector. Line up the internal notches and pins (and external arrows) and press directly together, without twisting, to connect.Use a 3 mm Allen wrench to tighten the throttle clamp bolt. The spacer must be properly installed between the throttle and the handlebar grip for the bike to operate safely. Slide the throttle and then the spacer onto the handlebar.Reinstall the throttle if it was removed.Test the brake, repeat if needed, and torque the bolt to 6 Nm.Pull the cable tight, slide the caliper arm slightly away from the cable end, and tighten the bolt. Use a 5 mm Allen wrench to loosen (but not remove) the cable pinch bolt at the caliper.Note: This will immediately loosen the cable tension, but once you have adjusted the cable tension described in the step below, it will allow you to add tension to the cable with the barrel adjusters (and without tools) as the cables stretch with future use. First, back in the barrel adjusters at the brake lever and the brake caliper.Make larger brake adjustments if the brake lever is still too close to the grip. If adding tension in small increments with the barrel adjusters doesn't provide enough cable tension to get proper brake lever feel, adjust the tension with an Allen wrench at the brake caliper.Repeat if needed to achieve proper cable tension so that when squeezed, the brake lever causes the brake pads to contact the rotor about halfway between the lever's neutral position and the handlebar grip.Test the brake by squeezing the lever to check if the space between the lever and the handlebar has increased.Turn the barrel adjuster at the brake lever or brake caliper to add cable tension, then twist the lock nut away from the barrel adjuster to secure it in place. ![]()
