Some common maintenance tips for BMX rear brakes include regularly checking and adjusting the brake pads for wear, ensuring the brake cables are properly tensioned, lubricating moving parts like the brake lever and pivot points, and periodically cleaning and inspecting the brake system for any damage or issues.
they dont need that good of brakes to stop
My 98 rodeo has disk brakes in the rear not drums,are there drums on some models.
No, most of the stopping is performed by the front brakes. But Honda uses a braking system that applies the rear brakes first. For this reason the rear brakes on some Hondas will wear out first.
Yes - Provided that the self adjusters have not seized from rust. That is quite common with drum brakes. Some year Sables have rear disc brakes. Those self adjust also. The Taurus /Sable rear disc adjusters are just as bad at seizing from rust as the drum adjusters. -On occasion I've even had to remove them and fit a whole new adjuster.
What year? Most are rear disc from some where around 79 and on?
They are self adjusting. Some sdjust when backing up and hitting the brakes and some by using the parking brake. You can also adjust them by removing the rear drums.
Some models of Ford Ranger have ( 9 inch ) rear drum brakes
the brakes were not fixed properly some part is installed wrong
No, they use foot operated rear brakes, as on all bikes. Some riders, Mick Doohan for instance tried a rear brake that was operated by a button on the left handlebar....
Some recommended rear bike racks that are compatible with disc brakes include the Topeak Explorer Rack, Blackburn Outpost Rear World Touring Rack, and Axiom Streamliner Road DLX Rack.
Some important maintenance tips for avid bicycle brakes include regularly checking and adjusting brake pads for wear, ensuring proper alignment of the brake calipers, cleaning and lubricating the brake system, and testing the brakes for proper function before each ride.
Yes, but removing the rear spindle is a lot of work and may require power tools or a press. A better alternative and a common modification for a Festiva is to swap the front hubs and rear end from an Aspire to a Festiva. This allows you much larger brakes, removable disc brakes up front, a rear torsion bar for much better handling. Some would say the swap is almost required as the Festiva stock brakes and suspension is horrible.
