  2. Brake fade - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brake_fade

    Brake fade is caused by a buildup of heat in the braking surfaces and the subsequent changes and reactions in the brake system components and can be experienced with both drum brakes and disc brakes. Loss of stopping power, or fade, can be caused by friction fade, mechanical fade, or fluid fade.

  3. Brake - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brake

    Disc brake on a motorcycle. A brake is a mechanical device that inhibits motion by absorbing energy from a moving system. [1] It is used for slowing or stopping a moving vehicle, wheel, axle, or to prevent its motion, most often accomplished by means of friction. [2]

  4. Motorcycle braking systems - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Motorcycle_braking_systems

    The lack of slight lateral movement allows more precise braking and crisper feeling brakes. [17] [18] Radial calipers can make modifying an existing disc brake with larger rotors simpler because the entire mounting bracket does not need to be replaced, needing only a spacer between the bracket and the caliper. [17]

  5. Combined braking system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Combined_braking_system

    A combined braking system (CBS), also called linked braking system (LBS), is a system for linking front and rear brakes on a motorcycle or scooter. [1] In this system, the rider's action of depressing one of the brake levers applies both front and rear brakes.

    On automobiles, disc brakes are often located within the wheel A drilled motorcycle brake disc. The development of disc-type brakes began in England in the 1890s. In 1902, the Lanchester Motor Company designed brakes that looked and operated similarly to a modern disc-brake system even though the disc was thin and a cable activated the brake pad. [4]

  7. Anti-lock braking system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anti-lock_braking_system

    On a motorcycle, an anti-lock brake system prevents the wheels of a motorcycle from locking during braking situations. Based on information from wheel speed sensors the ABS unit adjusts the pressure of the brake fluid in order to keep traction during deceleration to avoid accidents.
