[poll] Front brake concepts

[Pete Pachota]

I had two ideas for a front brake, check them out.

Design #1, it needs a spring somewhere:

Design #2:

both would work however id choose number two because it wouldn't get in the way as much and there is less to go wrong. I like the idea of number one but i think it is too much work and wouldn't be that effective. Also polls arn't working again

Edit: also if someone decided to try and mess around with your bar height it would break

ive had that idea before in the 2nd pic. i drilled the hole and everything in the headset but didnt know what to do after that,lol.but that would be cool.

I DONT THINK U EVEN NEED THEM

 

[Pete Pachota]

fine, do a long nosepick on top of a quaterpipe without a front brake.

 

[javier muro5]

u can use pegs for that

 

[javier muro5]

how can you do a nosepick without pigs

 

[Kevin Vannauker]

toothpick is with pegs..

 

[Dylan Kasson]

I like the first one because the second ones device would get in the way of blunt stalls just owuldnt want it rattling or all janky start a company pete!

Oh man Pete, ive drempt about front brakes for a while and these are motovating to try and make something work... I cant choose between the two. I like #2 just because the "brake pad" thing is right were you would do a foot jam on bmx so you know it wouldnt slip. #1 looks like it would slip, but then again if its rubber it shoud be fine.

 

[scooter4life]

i would choose # 2

 

[javier muro5]

i would choose non of them hahha

 

[rimroxxrailer]

id go with #1 because if u like landed something sketchy u could land on the little button and eat it

 

[javier muro5]

dude y do you even what one one your scoot

 

[Miles Quirk]

because they do.
its not your fucking scooter. no one is making you have one so stay out of the fucking thread.

id go with #2 though, i think itd be to easy to get flat spots with a handbrake

 

[Steezeman]

javier, you've made 5 posts saying how you wouldn't want them. No one cares mmk?

I think the second one would be best, less moving parts and it'd be pretty sure that you'd stop the wheel with it. Whereas the first would be easier to break and probably more time and money.

yea those are pretty awesome and look mean but they are expensive and probably heavy

 

[Jake Carlyon]

No way, number 2 looks deadly, you could accidentally land with your feet to far up the deck hit the frotn break which would = death.

1st pic is a better idea, but i imagine it would wear out wheels very fast.
