Operation
6.5.9.4 Change handbrake inclination angle
The nerves that pass through the carpal tunnel
are connected to the thumb and the index and
middle fingers. An excessively steep or
excessively flat brake angle will cause the wrist to
bend, thus narrowing the carpal tunnel. This can
cause numbness and tingling in the thumb and
index and middle fingers.
1 Calculate the difference between the height of
the handlebars and the saddle height to
determine the saddle-handlebar height
difference.
Figure 130: Example of 4 different handlebar heights
(A, B, C and D) and the saddle height (E)
Adjust the angle of the handbrake so that it forms
a natural extension of the forearm.
2 Set the brake lever angle as indicated in the
table.

6.5.9.5 Determining the grip distance

gauge.
