Using this SRAM Apex rear brake caliper is straightforward. First, make sure it's properly installed on your bike's rear wheel according to the instructions. When you squeeze the brake lever, the caliper will grip the wheel rim to slow you down. In wet conditions, you'll still get great braking performance thanks to the special pad compound, but be a bit more cautious as the stopping distance might be slightly longer. To adjust the brake, you can use the external centering adjuster and the radiussed brake shoe washers for toe - in and angle adjustment. For maintenance, regularly check the brake pads for wear. When they're worn out, replace them with cartridge - type pads. Also, keep the caliper clean and free from dirt and debris to ensure smooth operation.
