Hydraulic Rear Drum Brake System in Two Wheeler

The function of the braking system is to retard the speed of the moving vehicle or bring it to rest in a shortest possible distance whenever required. The vehicle can be held on an inclined surface against the pull of gravity by the application of brake. The effectiveness of the brake has been increased with the introduction of hydraulic brake system. With this system the stopping distance and the braking force required is considerably less, smooth and easy to operate also less maintenance compared to mechanical braking system. Normally in motor cycle of the current trend employ mechanical braking system with drum brakes. We hope to increase the effectiveness of the braking system in motorcycle with the application of hydraulic drum brakes at rear of the motorcycle.
