    Brakes on a Fox

    I picked up my 67 Street Scamp (possibly the Trail Tramp or Scamp, whatever it's called) and I need some brakes. I was told that Airhart brakes might work (possibly now used on Manco)? Anybody know for sure? I've found a few on eBay, but they don't look like they'll bolt up. I was told they...

    Does anyone have a decent link of pics for karts made by Stellar. I saw one the other day and man does it look like the one I'm trying to identify. The only major difference is the seat is metal and mine is wood. But the problem is when you google Stellar Kart there is a band with that...

    Manco sprocket/brake band configuration?

    I recently purchased a Manco Mini bike that was obviously heavily influenced by Rube Goldberg. I am questioning if the sprocket and drum for the brake band originally came together on the same side of the rear wheel. When I took the bike apart the brake band had no anchor and consequently they...

    Band brake adjustment?

    I was out riding my little mini and I found the 50 year old 4 3/4" band brake would no longer stop me quickly. I ordered a replacement band brake from OldMiniBikes and have a question for you band brake drivers. What is the correct 'air gap" for the brake? Do you adjust until the wheel is free or...

    Need 4" (or 4 3/16") Band Brake Drum

    NOS Peerless Differential Band Brake

    At least that's what I think it is.....I'm 99.9% sure this drum is made to bolt up to the Peerless differentials. I bought this setup years ago from Yellowhand when I was building my trike. The drum is vintage NOS , quality made, heavy duty....measures approx 4-1/4". Bolts onto the existing...

    rear wheel/clutch type band brake

    I've been into garden tractors and lawnmowers for years. A common style of brakes on them is a hub with a smooth , solid outer surface and a band that grips when the brake is applied, like the brakes that work on a clutch pulley on a minibike. I'm thinking about making a hub and attaching it to...
