Reverse brake hubs vs. Normal brakes

Reverse brake hubs are actually a kind of brake system, which is a common tool on our bikes. Unlike the hand brakes that are more commonly used, the inverted brake hub uses the inverted brake method, which means that when we apply the brakes, we only need to apply the brakes backwards with our feet. However, for novices, this kind of braking method is not very accustomed, so it is not very recommended for novices to use, and the reverse brake hubs are mostly used by some "veterans" who pursue performance, and they have received good reviews because of the good braking effect.

The biggest difference between the inverted brake hubs we use and the normal brakes is in the structure, as we all know, the normal brake braking method is actually through the two brake pads, through the friction between the brake pads and the wheels to achieve the purpose of braking, this method is very simple and practical, but the braking speed is slower. The inverted brake hub is actually a hub installed on the wheel, in this hub there is an iron piece used to hold the wheel axle, when we start braking, the iron piece will start to constantly rub with the hub, so that the car can quickly stop, but the disadvantage is that the friction process is constantly wear the skin of the hub, when the wear is serious we need to replace it. The disadvantage is that this friction process will wear out the skin of the hub, and when it gets bad we need to replace it.
