08. Brake
Your balance bike Solo/Terra is equipped with a rear disc brake. Included in the packaging you will find
a couple of spare brake pads.
WARNING! Before using the toy, explain to the children how the brake works, teaching them that the
stronger they pull the brake lever, the harder the bike will stop. Teach the kids how to brake smoothly,
thus learning how to stop himself safely. Teach the kids that hard braking can lead to a loss of conrol
of the bike and to falls.
WARNING! Due to their motive abilities children starting to learn to ride the balance bike at the age
of approx. 2.5 years are not able to stop such a vehicle by themselves with the handbrake. There is a
risk that supervising persons may be persuaded in believing in a „non-existing safety" and therefore
do not pay enough attention to the learner, because the bike is fitted with a brake (see warning notes).
All children should be supervised when riding the balance bike, even if they are able to effectively use
the brake.
WARNING! The replacement of the brake pads must be carried out by a professional bycicle mechaninc.
A non conforming replacement can lead to malfunctions of the brake and create dangerous situations.
WARNING! Brake pads are small parts that can be swallowed. Keep them away from the reach of
children.
