Einleitung

Brakes are some of the most important components on any sort of transportation device or vehicle, whether it's a bike, car, or scooter. Without brakes, coming to a full stop would be near impossible. For something like a scooter, needing to brake rapidly is extremely important as you have nothing to protect you. This guide will teach you how to successfully replace the brake caliper on your GOTRAX GMAX Ultra electric scooter. This scooter can go up to 30k/h so keeping your brakes in good working condition is necessary. Note that you will need a replacement brake caliper beforehand so contact the manufacturer for the required part prior to beginning the repair.

    • Use the 5mm hex key to remove the 16mm screw holding the brake cable in place.

    • This screw and washer stays on the scooter so it only needs to be loosened enough to free the cable.

    • No tools are required to loosen this, but you can always use something like pliers if it was screwed too tight.

    • Remove the brake caliper.
