What is the reason why the rear brake of a scooter cannot hold?
1 Answers
If it is a drum brake, it may be due to excessive wear of the brake drum or insufficient contact area between the new brake shoe and the brake drum. In this case, the brake shoe needs to be scraped and filed to remove the excess protruding parts in the middle, similar to the process of fitting new shoes to drums in large vehicles, to maximize the contact area between the brake shoe and the drum. Below is some relevant information: 1. Brakes: Brakes are mechanical devices used to slow down or stop a vehicle, also known as decelerators. Scooters generally use drum brakes, which are crucial and must be kept in good condition. 2. Types of brakes: Manual car brakes are located next to the gear shift and are connected to the brake lever. Common types also include bicycle brakes, which rely on rod-shaped brakes fixed to the frame or disc brakes to slow down the vehicle.
