why it braked so fast

Cheap, I guess. It was never abused at all. We put it up after each use. We got maybe 5 uses and then it sprang a leak. I put duct tape on it and got maybe two to three more uses out of it. Then it broke in half, in a different place.

Just bought another and it sprung a leak after just a couple uses. Don't know why but I won't be endorsing again.

Hi - in my opinion the brakes aren't designed to work like a bicycle lock and slow down. I think the main reason for the brake is to ensure that the rollator is completely stopped so that you can maintain your balance. I suppose if you are walking fast and hit the brakes very carefully it could slow you down gradually, but it doesn not have the finesse of a bicycle brake that has the normal rubber grippers against the side of the wheel rim. I hope this information helps.

It is not fast at all i was very dsiapointed and it is not a out side rc car.

The peddles brake, too (with the usual pushing-back motion). We've been really pleased with this bike!

Rode with it in a heavy rain for 3 hours, and it no longer works reliably, so I think that answers the question... Same happened with the PlanetBike tail taillight...

Applying progressive pressure will make it slow down, the brakes are a piston above the rear wheels (an upside down bolt) which pushes into the tire, it is not a caliper that grips the wheel rim like on a bike. I think if you used the break in that manner you would have to frequently adjust the break with the rollator's included wrench and may eventually need to replace the wheel, I'm not sure that would be the case. I can say that after using it for many months now, I could not be more satisfied.

It is quite fast until it breaks which doesn't take long. This boat is junk. Don't buy it. My first boat died after two uses. The seller would not fix it or take it back. The seller did offer me a discount on a new boat which I foolishly accepted. The second boat also died and both boats ended up in the garbage can.

Its not going to brake off. It is made well. I have used mine a lot and have not had any issues with it.

There is no brake...... there's one button on the right handlebar...... u press it and it goes and wen u release the button it stops...... it doesnt travel fast enough to need a brake

Too fast for the amount of power it has. It should be geared down lower. It can barely get up a hill of any sorts.

I am not sure what you're asking what material next the replacement pads spark? Or when riding it you pull the brake, the replacement pad and the brake will cause the spark

Mine stopped working after 2 days and manufacturer didn't help. It went into the crash.

It depends on the gearing, motor and battery combination and what you hit. It is possible to break it if you hit something at the 'stock' top speed, but usually it will make it through a couple impacts. Though, with faster speeds and/or multiple impacts, something will give.

Dont buy bad product break down too fast save your money and buy something good

The brake has inertia sensors that apply the brakes as the coach slows.The brakes can also be applied manualy.

Actually I just disconnected it. But I found out later the wheel bearing assembly was bad and it was getting a false reading. My brakes would go right to the floor and I couldn't stop. When I disconnected it they worked fine.

From a mechanical standpoint, I think that's totally possible. It should behave like any other brake application...they shouldn't require any more travel.
