Are there any brakes?

Technically yes. There's a coaster brake which means you have to paddle back ways to stop the cycle. But there're no hand brakes.

Yes, the bike has coaster brakes. Our granddaughter has enjoyed riding it since December and has no problems with the bike.

I bought this for our 12 yr old grandson, and don't remember if it had brakes or not. Best price I found (VERY reasonable!) was thru Amazon!

Yes there are brakes but they are only as good as the strength of the rider

Yes, there are flip-down brakes like many other models. You step on them. One for each rear wheel.

Does it have coaster foot brakes as well - there a couple conflicting answers.

Yes they do, and the brakes are pre-bled. Worth the purchase for the price.

Yes, it does have brakes. When in a standing position you can put on the brakes. This is the second one we've had. The old one still is good, just the plastic on the arms wore off. My husband is going into a care home so I wanted him to have a newer one for there.

I don't know if it has a brake but it does stop pretty fast. Much faster than my Bosch electric.

Yes it has brakes. We just use it between the car and long hallways to doctor appointments. Meant to be pushed by someone.

It doesn't have a brake. But the front wheel won't spin super fast. Not for bombing hills but a good start!

Yes they do, there is a sliding pin that you push to one side to allow the brakes to open a bit more. Works nice.

No. Hand brakes only. And it was not easy to assemble. I ended up taking it to a bike shop so plan ahead instead of trying to put together on Christmas Eve.

Yes absolutely, and the metal over the back wheel is the brake. (brakes by stepping on it)

The brakes on nine were too tight. I think there is a way to adjust them underneath. I have never tried though.

The only brake is a Velcro strap that holds the wheel in place when you are stopped/parked. I have not seen separate brakes available, you may want to look at the manufacturers main website to see if they sell a separate brake. Hope this helps.

Yes. The brakes are the 2 levers under the handles by which the driver pushes the chair. However, the OCCUPANT of the chair likely cannot reach around behind to lock them.
