Fast50s brakes

[zippy168]

So I got this given to me, there fast50s but can anyone tell me is this just standard front brake setup or is this a rear brake hand setup the reason I ask is because this lever and perch is made for the left side of the handlebars... And it's a fairly long cable?

Rear handbrake set up. Small bracket near your thumb clamps to the swingarm.

looks like a rear setup to me.

Thats what I thought thankyou

pretty good deal for free, they go for $50 to $100 2nd hand that kit

 

[zippy168]

Not a bad deal. Ha yeah I had an altercation with a bike shop in town so they gave it to me

Looks like you can run both handbrake and pedal with that one?

Yeah cool. Ive seen em before, but not with that kit.

Postie bikes came out with the same set up std lol, thats what i was chasing with my last handbrake. Gen Honda though..not F50

Some of the 3speed semi-auto CT70's also had this handbrake option on them from standard

I'm using one of these. They need a little tweaking it make them work well and I used some massive ass spring rather then the normal little spring on the rear brake and it works really well.

i run no spring & i have it working superb!
