Bicycle brakes are an integral part of a bike because they are what stops it from moving. If they don’t work properly, they will need to be fixed before you can safely use your bike again. A bike brake stops the bicycle from moving by jamming rubber (rim brakes) or metal and fibres (disc brakes) against the rotating wheels. Most of the bike brakes are operated by a cable that's been pulled when pressing the lever, compressing the callipers onto the rim or pistons onto the disc rotor. There are a number of reasons why bike brakes don’t always work, such as, the calliper being broken, pads being worn or contaminated, levers being faulty or the cable having issues. In this blog we are going to concentrate on the last problem and show you the secrets behind bike brake cable replacement.

Hi Aryan, you're most welcome🙂
I am trying to get brakes working on my son's bicycle. I need a new "barrel adjuster" I think. This one does not seem to have threads to screw into the handle assembly like the one in your video. His bike's looks like a square hole where the barrel adjuster would seat. Where can I find the correct style that I need? Thank you for this well put together video.
Hi Josh, thanks for your comment and the question. Yes, these types of barrel adjusters have two flat sides and they slide in the brake lever body rather then screw in. The best shot would be to visit your local bike shop. They should have a replacement part. I hope this helps and good luck with repairing your kid's brakes. Let us know how you got on.

The end on the MTB brake cable I got is smaller than the original one on my bike, so it doesn't fill all the space in the hole in the lever. Is this normal? I'm not sure it's safe to use a cable with a smaller end...
Hi, thanks for your question. Apologies but I'm unable to give you the right answer without seeing the bike. We do have a vgreat ideo explaining different types of brake cables here: ruclips.net/video/zvD2F3JwQc4/видео.html . You can check if you have the correct cable fitted.

Hey, thanks for your comment. Unfortunately I don't speak Spanish, and Google Translate did not provide a clear translation of your sentence: "How to remove the ball from the back so that it enters through the hose?" Would you be able to explain your problem in english or put more details in spanish so that the translation will be more clear?
