Is there a foot brake in addition to the hand breaks? I have only owned cruise bikes in the past.

Only the hand brakes, I have had used hand brakes for years, they work very well. One control works the front brake, the other the rear brake. We rented bicycles with a cruising bike, I almost was run over because the brakes did not engage quickly enough.

Unfortunately not you'll need your front brake as your main way of stopping coast is the free spinning hub side so back pressure will just turn your pedals backwards freely and not engage the gear

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

Hi Miriam! Is does have a hand brake on the handle bar? If if you will be using on trails I would highly recommend that you buy one with a swivel front wheel. Let me know if I can answer any more questions.

It does not have hand brakes, but you brake by pedaling backwards, much like the bike you probably had as a child. It works, but feels a lot slower than hand brakes. If you need to stop suddenly, you'll probably need to jump off the bike.

There is no hand brake. They will have to use the feet on the ground method. This is hands down the best purchase I have made for my child. We have had ours a year and use it daily. Go for the real tires!

Just hand brakes. My daughter is 8yrs old, she loves the bike. It didnt take her long at all to get used to the hand brakes

No foot or hand brake . It stops moving when you let your finger off the button . My 2 yr old granddaughter does fine with it

It comes with a wrench to put on or take off foot pedals but I use this strictly as a hand rower with the foot pedals provided. I have a stationary bike for pedaling

Yes, it does have coaster brakes. Very small fixture hidden in the rear. Not a true fixie in this sense but looks like one.

Do not know. I bought this for my granddaughter first bicycle and she did not have hand brakes.

This bike has a coaster brake in the back. It's not a fixed hub. The kid can coast while going down hill, going fast or if it is tired. If the kid back pedals it engages the brake. There is a hand brake for the front wheel as well.

Hello, Front hand brake. Rear coaster-brake (pedal operated when user installed). Regards, BMW - AutoGoodParts

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.

no this bike is hand brakes only. So far this bike is a good one. Our boys, 4 of them(9, 8, 7, & 6) our big bike riders and this is the 3rd one this size. It seems as good and maybe a little better than the others. It's a good bike for the money.

It has both, a coaster break(back peddling break) and a hand break for the front wheel. I hope this helps!
