    First time was on a Herters. I could see the shoes expanding but would not stop under power. I put new shoes on but problem persists. Now this Taco 44 I am setting up for my grandson has the same problem and I have the adjustment very tight. Have the same problem on the VT8-12 front brake...

    Brake drum shoe pad replacement

    I'm working on what appears to be a Chinese mini chopper, recently the back brake pads fell off of the shoe (they weren't adhered to the shoe) and cracked. Any ideas where I can get new pads for them? Looked just to buy the whole shoe, but none of them online match up with what I need. Thanks!

    About scrub brakes??

    Looking at a minibike but pics are blurry. About all I can tell for sure is it has a scrub brake and needs a new home and some TLC. Out of curiosity was wondering about what year scrubs were discontinued

    Mechanical disc brakes

    I've been studying brake calipers, and have come to the conclusion that there is a lot of friction lost between the actuation and the real friction it take to stop. A percentage mechanical advantage (leverage) is lost by the friction of all of the resistance in the cams and the levers binding...

    DB30 front brakes

    I am toying with the idea of installing front brakes on my Doodlebug. I have seen a couple of picks of people doing it with a rear wheel on the front. I know the forks are not the strongest things in the world but how much braking force will be applied with the cable operated caliper? The...
