A rod brake system on a bicycle works by using a metal rod to connect the brake lever to the brake pads. When the rider squeezes the brake lever, the rod transmits the force to the brake pads, causing them to press against the wheel rim and slow down the bike. This system is commonly found on older or vintage bicycles.

On your rear brake, you will have a rod that runs from your rear brake pedal to the rear wheel. On the very back end of the rod, it is threaded and has a wing nut adjuster screw. Turn the wing nut a 1/2 turn at a time and try your rear brake. Keep adjusting until you have a good brake pedal. If you have the 125L you will have a disc brake at the front (no adjustment - just make sure your reservoir is full of brake fluid), but if you have the 125 with a drum brake at the front wheel, repeat the same process only you will have a cable instead of a rod at the front wheel.
