Scooter brake system parts

   Scooter brake system

The braking system of a modern scooter is a complex design of various parts working in unison, providing smooth and efficient braking. The front brake on scooters is operated by the right hand lever. The lever on the left hand side of the steering wheel engages the rear brake. The exception is some older models with a foot pedal on the front. The lever is used to apply the rear brake with your foot instead of the hand lever. A typical scooter braking system is divided into three types: front disc brake and rear drum brake; drum / drum option; disc / disc is also possible.

Disc brakes are made up of a metal disc called a rotor, which is attached to the wheel of the scooter and rotated by it. The most common brake adjuster design is a bicycle-like hand lever. When the brake lever is pressed, it activates the cable. The caliper clamps the rotating rotor with brake pads, causing friction. Disc friction between the pads slows down the wheel.

Disc brakes are of three types:

  1. Hydraulic
  2. Semi-hydraulic
  3. Mechanical

The advantages of disc brakes:

  • Excellent braking power
  • Withstands wet / dry conditions well
  • Light braking system
  • Easy to maintain
  • Excellent braking control, especially with hydraulic disc brakes

Disadvantages of disc brakes:

  • May require periodic adjustments and maintenance
  • Disc brakes add value to the scooter
  • Poor, rough riding conditions degrade performance

The drum brakes are closed inside the wheel hub. The drum brake pads push outward against the braking surface, causing friction. It is friction that slows down the wheel. The brake is completely enclosed, protected from the environment. Its protection is an advantage, but also a disadvantage; as drum brakes overheat, they become less effective.

Similar to disc brakes, drum brakes are activated by hand levers operated by a cable. They are nearly as efficient, require less maintenance, but are difficult to operate.

Drum brake advantages:

  • Low level of service
  • Continuous operation in wet conditions
  • Moderate braking performance
  • Fully closed in the wheel hub

Disadvantages of drum brakes:

  • Reinforced braking system
  • Difficult to disassemble, repair
  • Poor performance when overheating

Drum, disc, combination of both - it doesn't matter. On the website of the store moto-lux.com.ua you can buy spare parts for the braking system of a scooter of various types.

Remember - brakes are one of the most important safety features of a scooter - don't try to put it to the test. Modern scooters are equipped with powerful motors. The maximum speed of some maxiscuters is more than 120 km / h, so the consequences of a faulty braking system tend to end badly. Good quality brakes are characterized by short stopping distances, little physical effort to activate, durability, and performance in wet conditions.
