Types of coaster brakes

Mountain bike brakes can be of various types, we can find V-Brake type or disc brakes.

V-Brake type brakes for mountain bike

V-Brake type brakes are more commonly used on lower-end road, urban, child or mountain bikes. These are two shoes that, when actuating the brake lever, press the profile of the wheel rim, reducing its speed. or making it stop completely.

Mountain Bike Disc Brakes

Disc brakes for mountain bikes are the most used system for cyclists who do mountain routes, downhill or for medium or high-end bicycles. Disc brakes can be found in two types.

mechanical disc brakes

Mechanical disc brakes, which are the ones whose braking system, despite being disc-operated, is cable-operated. When the brake lever is pressed, it pulls a cable that presses the two brake caliper pistons against the disc, causing the wheel to slow down or stop completely.

Hydraulic Disc Brakes

And the hydraulic disc brakes go through a closed oil circuit system, which when operating the brake lever causes the pistons that go in the brake caliper to press the disc and it slows down or stops. Hydraulic disc brakes have much greater stopping power than V-Brakes or mechanical disc brakes.

MTB disc brakes

MTB disc brakes are hydraulic mountain bike brakes for mtb bikes. MTB disc brakes can be hydraulic or mechanical depending on whether the MTB disc brakes are oil circuit or cable. Normally mid-range and high-end mtb bikes have hydraulic mountain bike brakes, while low-end mtb bikes usually have mechanical MTB disc brakes. In the world of cycling there are innumerable brands and models of MTB disc brakes and they vary depending on their quality and price, such as the Shimano XT disc brakes that are highly demanded in the world of mountain biking for being MTB disc brakes. with very good performance. MTB disc brakes also need to have special MTB brake levers for this type of brake, since MTB disc brakes are not compatible with vbrake brakes in any of their parts.

Mountain bike hydraulic brakes

Hydraulic Mountain Bike brakes are a type of MTB disc brake that is activated by an oil circuit that causes these Mountain Bike hydraulic brakes to press the brake disc and make the MTB bikes stop. There are different types of MTB hydraulic brakes from well-known brands such as SRAM or Shimano, although there are also many other brands of Mountain Bike hydraulic brakes on the cycling market, although they are used to a lesser extent by MTB bikes. Keep in mind that mountain bike hydraulic brakes have a much higher braking power than vbrake brakes, so we must brake with Mountain Bike hydraulic brakes in a more controlled way than with vbrake brakes to avoid falls.

Shimano XT disc brakes

Shimano XT disc brakes are one of the most widely used MTB disc brake models on mtb bikes, since these Shimano XT disc brakes have excellent performance at a reasonable price for their range. We can find two-piston Shimano XT disc brakes or four-piston Shimano XT disc brakes, depending on the use you are going to give it, since the four-piston Shimano XT disc brake models are usually used on downhill or mountain bikes. in situations where we need extra stopping power.

MTB brake levers

The MTB brake levers are responsible for activating the mountain bike hydraulic brakes when the cyclist demands it. These MTB brake levers are housed in the mtb handlebar and can be hydraulic mtb brake levers or mechanical mtb brake levers.
