What type of brakes does this bike have? Does it include coaster (pedal) brakes and hand brakes?

It only has hand brakes for the front and rear wheels. It doesn't have coaster brakes.

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.

This bike is equipped with a free wheel meaning if you push back words on the pedals you will not engage any brakes. It will jus spin feely. This bike does have handlebar brakes on front and rear. It does come with a kickstand.

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

Coaster brakes. I had to buy 2 of these bikes because my 3 and 5 year old fought over it.

This bike has both front and rear hand brakes. They work really well too. I would have preferred the other type as I had never used hand brakes before. I am more familiar with them now and it is all ok.

This version come with V-brakes and a RST fork. The brake pads are too bad, i recommend and upgrade.

The hole in the rear sprocket that comes with the kit is intended for a 7-speed/derailleur type bike with hand brakes. My current project bike is a single speed coaster brake bike. If you are doing a coaster you will need to enlarge the center hole to clear the coaster brake hub, or purchase a sprocket with the hole enlarged (which is what I did). I'm also adding hand brakes to my bike so it will still have brakes in the event of chain failure or popping off while motoring. Good luck with your build.

The bike brakes by stepping on the peddles backwards. Manuel brakes only, no hand brakes.

Yes it has coaster brakes. You have to push back on the pedals in order to brake.

Yes, there are brakes. The same levers used to operate the wheel lock mechanism are used as brakes. To lock the wheels, the levers are pushed down (away from the handles). To brake, the levers are squeezed toward the handles just as you would operate handbrakes on a bicycle. This is a good machine. No issues with it.

Yes - they are pull up style brakes on the handle bars. Work great. Our son like to pedal really fast and then turn the wheel while hitting the brakes - makes him skid in a circle. LOVE this bike - worth every penny.

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

There are two versions, with and without coaster brake. Pay attention to the text description rather than the photo.

There are hand brakes on each handlebar that work on the rear wheels. Very effective, They also can be locked to act as parking brakes. WALT

Not quite sure what you are asking. I will say that this bike is great though. You can use it as a balance bike without pedals and then as your child grows and is ready for pedals you just add them to the bike. It comes with all the equipment to add the pedals when it is time. Can't recommend this bike enough. Cost is the only negative. Hope this info helps.

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.

Hi, it has a hand brake for the front wheel and coaster break for the back wheel. My son rarely uses the front break, since the back coaster break works well.
