Brakes are an essential part of the bike, providing control and safety. The caliper brakes are light and easy to maintain, but can be less effective in the wet. Disc brakes, hydraulic or mechanical, offer excellent braking performance and are particularly suitable for off-road and electric bikes. Drum and foot brakes are simple and well suited to urban bikes. Regular maintenance, such as replacement of brake pads and discs, ensures reliability and long service life. Choose your brakes according to your riding style and conditions for the best riding experience.
