Best Answer

The rider puts his feet on the pedal and push on the one that'd going down on the front side, which tensions the chain, which makes the rear wheel turn and the bike to move forward.

Does BMX make 24'' bikes with petel brakes?

BMX isn't a manufacturer, it's type of bicycle - just like sneaker is a type of shoe. BMX doesn't make any bicycles. Bicycle manufacturers make BMX bikes. And pedal brakes aren't that good on a performance bike, as you have to wait until your pedals are in the right position before you can brake. But it's possible that you can find a BMX-looking kids/juvenile bike with a pedal brake. Don't expect it to do particularly well if it gets ridden hard though.
