BIKEHAND Bicycle Rim Brake Pad Alignment Tool Pair with Left and Right Guides, Curved Plastic Setup Blocks for Road Caliper and V-Brake Adjustment

Position rim-brake pads with paired guides

The BIKEHAND green alignment tool pair assists with positioning rim-brake pads against the wheel rim. The source demonstrates one guide on each side of the rim while the brake lever holds the assembly in position. This is an alignment aid for rim-brake pad setup, with two separate pieces supplied.

Left and right pieces

The molded guides are marked L and R and include directional arrows. Use the corresponding piece on each side as shown in the source. Each guide has a curved working edge, molded brand details and a hanging hole visible in the close-up photographs.

Compact curved plastic construction

The source identifies engineering-plastic construction. The parameter image gives a reference size of approximately 8.8 cm by 2.1 cm for one guide. The thin curved form sits between the pad and rim during positioning and can be carried in a small workshop tool kit.

Source-demonstrated adjustment sequence

Loosen the brake-pad fixing sufficiently to position the pads. Place the two guides between the pads and rim, then hold the brake lever so the pads contact the guides. Align the pads correctly and secure their fixings according to the brake manufacturer instructions. Release the lever, remove both guides and check brake operation before riding.

Included pair and application

One green left guide and one green right guide are included. Source demonstrations cover road caliper and V-brake rim-brake adjustment. Bicycles, wheels, brake pads and other workshop items are demonstration equipment and are not included.
