* Non-adjustable springs are found in older or cheaper brakes. If these need adjustment, you must physically deform them. You can sometimes increase the tension of the spring by unhooking the transverse cable (or single cable of a sidepull brake) and forcing the brake arm out much farther than it would normally go. If that doesn't work, you may need to bend the spring after unhooking it from the brake, or slide a brake shoe stud in or out of the eyebolt, or reposition washers on a threaded stud. | * Non-adjustable springs are found in older or cheaper brakes.

Mechanical advantage is a key concept, which you must understand before you will be able to choose and service brakes. Mechanical advantage is commonly referred to as "power", when discussing brakes, and it is common for people to confuse this with quality. A brake may be designed for any amount of mechanical advantage, but there is a fairly narrow range that is useable. | Mechanical advantage is a key concept, which you must understand before you will be able to choose and service brakes.

Since the travel increases as the brake shoes wear down, braking performance degrades as the shoes wear, not because the shoes have any less grip, but because the mechanical advantage has decreased. | Since the travel increases as the brake shoes wear down, braking performance degrades as the shoes wear, not because the shoes have any less grip, but because the mechanical advantage has decreased. | ||

Preferably, every part of a rim-brake system is rigid except the brake shoes. Their compressibility allows them to conform to the shape of the rim and to take up the motion of the brake levers. If, on the other hand, the brake arms are flimsy and flexy, as on cheap long-reach sidepull caliper brakes, there is no way the brakes can develop enough "power". Most of the motion of the brake levers is wasted in flexing the arms. If the mechanical advantage is high, the brake lever will go to the handlebar before the brake shoes grip the rim very hard. If the mechanical advantage is low, the feel at the levers will be harder, but the brake will never develop enough grip. | Preferably, every part of a rim-brake system is rigid except the brake shoes.
