Hello! How can we help you?

My brake is worn out, how do I change it?

If the brake pads on the brakes on your Veloped/Walker get worn out, you will need to replace the brakes in order to ensure a proper brake function.


Just follow these simple steps: 

Step 1. Detach the rear wheel.

Step 2. On the inside of the brake, unscrew and remove the 3 screws with a Phillips screwdriver and then remove the black plastic brake cover.

Step 3. Compress the brake and you can “unhook” and remove the brake cable from the brake, through the 2 cable slots.

Step 4. Unscrew and remove the screw that holds the brake with a 4mm Allen key.

Step 5. Attach the new brake with the 4mm Allen key.

Step 6. Push the cable adjuster screw into the brake, align its nut, and pull the brake cable end through the slot of the brake and attach it.

Step 7. Attach the black plastic cover with the 3 screws (Phillips screwdriver).

Step 8. Attach the wheel and test the brake.

Step 9. If the brake tension needs to be adjusted, please see separate instructions for this.

  • Excellent Product, well thought out…

    This is an excellent product, once you have got over the price! There is not another like it on the market. The pneumatic tyres make a huge difference, especially on rough or non-existent roads. It's actually worth it. The brakes are not the best, th…

    I am currently mostly housebound due to recovering from broken ankle and ribs! Also the recent weather has not helped as it has been wet and at times icy!

    The Trionic Veloped Sport was an excellent purchase. Because of cerebellar ataxia, I am no longer able to walk without a rollator. This device allows me to walk outdoors again, which is huge! It is worth every cent.…
