Suntour Superbe Pro Brakes

Looking to dial in my RB-1 that came with suntour superbe pro brakes. Looking for manual or some resources on how to adjust them. Thanks.

Andrew

Caliper brakes right? There's not much to dial in, except for the centering and the position of the pads. Pretty simple, the brakes should be centered so that the pads are the same distance from the rim. The pads should be adjusted in the calipers so they hit the rims squarely and at a good height (not rubbing the tire, and not diving into the spokes.)

The rest is just proper cable routing. Sheldon's article on cables: https://sheldonbrown.com/cables.html
