Why Brake Bedding Matters

Before we dive into the Disc-o-Matic magic, let's talk about why brake bedding is crucial, especially for a high-performance e-bike like the Aventon Level.3 with its powerful Magura MT-2 hydraulic disc brakes.

Brake bedding is the process of properly mating the brake pads and rotors to ensure optimal friction and performance. When you first get a new bike, the brake components are fresh out of the box and need to be "worn in" to achieve their full potential. Proper bedding:

  • Increases stopping power: Ensures maximum friction for confident braking.
  • Reduces brake fade: Prevents loss of braking power during prolonged use.
  • Prolongs pad and rotor life: Minimizes wear and tear on your braking system.
  • Eliminates noise: Reduces squealing or squeaking.

Enter the Disc-o-Matic

Now, here's where things get exciting! At CyclErie, we take brake bedding seriously. Instead of relying on manual break-in methods, we utilize the Bonus Labs Disc-o-Matic machine. This innovative tool automates the bedding process, ensuring consistent and optimal results every time.

Here's how it works:

  1. Secure the bike: The Aventon Level.3 is securely mounted on the Disc-o-Matic.
  2. Automatic bedding: The machine precisely applies the brakes in a controlled sequence, simulating real-world riding conditions.
  3. Consistent results: This automated process eliminates inconsistencies that can occur with manual bedding.

The CyclErie Advantage

By using the Disc-o-Matic, we guarantee that your Aventon Level.3 brakes are performing at their absolute best from the moment you leave our shop. You'll experience:

  • Shorter stopping distances: Confident braking in any situation.
  • Smooth and consistent braking: No grabbing or pulsing.
  • Quiet operation: Enjoy a peaceful ride without annoying brake noise.
