Drum Brake Lining Adjustment

In order for the brake to achieve its full effect, the brake shoes must be adjusted and fitted properly. This does not only refer to adjusting the brake cable. The brake shoes should not be fully loaded immediately but need to be run in. On the first ride with new shoes, it is recommended to lightly apply the brake about 20 times, gradually increasing the braking force on subsequent rides. After running in, the shoes should contact at least two-thirds of the drum surface. If necessary, the ends of the shoes can be chamfered. Unfortunately, this procedure is time-consuming and cannot always be done without removing the wheel.

Possible assembly fault and brake drum failure.

Some brake drum/wheel hub combinations require one or more spacer shims (front W&W 27-748, rear 27-746) to prevent them from touching the hub’s spoke rim. The brake drum must not touch the hub’s spoke flange. This might result in the drum breaking when tightening lug bolts.
