Adjusting Ural Twin Leading Shoe Front Brakes

 Notes - Ural twin leading shoes brakes can work acceptably well if correctly adjusted.
There are square adjusters with lock nuts on the end of each brake shoe.

There is also an adjuster on the cable for fine adjustment.
The link rod on the outside of the brake plate that connects the two brake cam levers does NOT have a left hand thread in one end. This means simply turning it will not change the distance between the two brake cam levers.
