Brembo Enduro Clutch Lever Installation + Set up Guide

Installation

1. Remove the stock lever. Take off the pivot bolt, clutch lever, and return spring. The return spring is not reused, our lever uses a built-in adjustment screw instead.
2. Remove the stock plunger. Use a pair of pliers to remove the stock plunger, it is not reused.
3. Apply lubrication. Use white lithium grease or a similar lubricant on the push rod, pivot bushing, pivot bolt, and all contact points of the lever.
4. Select your preferred clutch feel. Choose between Light or Extra Light. Insert the metal bushing into the desired leverage ratio slot, and place the nylon spacer on top of the bushing.
5. Check pushrod alignment. Make sure the clutch master cylinder pushrod is fully seated and aligned straight before installing the new lever. You will need to tighten the push rod adjuster a few turns in order to make contact with the plunger.
6. Install the new lever. Reinstall the pivot bolt through the master cylinder housing and the X-Light lever. Do not over-tighten, snug is enough. Check the smoothness of the lever pull after tightening to ensure there is no binding.

Adjustment

Important: only adjust your clutch once the bike has reached full operating temperature. A cold clutch will drag and cause inaccurate engagement, which leads to excessive reach or clutch slippage.

• 10 mm Brembo recommended setting: X-Light
• 9 mm Brembo recommended setting: Light

1. Set the engagement point. Use the adjustment screw to ensure the clutch fully disengages when the lever is pulled tight to the handlebar. Turning the screw clockwise moves the engagement earlier in the lever pull. Adjust until you find the feel and engagement you prefer.
2. Adjust free play. With your 5 mm ball-end Allen key, turn the stop bolt to set free play. You want just enough clearance so the clutch fully re-engages when the lever is released. With no free play, the clutch may stay slightly disengaged, leading to slippage and excessive wear. With too much free play, you risk rattle and less responsive clutch control.
3. Test and ride. Go for a ride and test under real conditions. Fine tune the screw and stop bolt as needed to dial in your setup. Bring your 5 mm ball-end Allen key on the first few rides, as you may need additional adjustment on the trail.

Tips

• Torque the master cylinder clamp bolts to 4 to 6 Nm.
• Use plumber's tape or friction tape under the clamp to help it rotate in a crash, protecting both the lever and the master cylinder.
• Recheck adjustments after a few rides.
