It has both a hand brake and a foot pedal brake. They are both very effective.

Both. The foot pedal is the 'gas' pedal and the twist throttle will switch 'gears' if you choose hook up the connector cable letting them switch from the lower speed to the higher speed.

On mine, rear brake is a fender that you step on. Works pretty well, actually. Front brake has a hand control.

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.

The bike has both the standard cruise brake and a hand brake. Our daughter (5) only uses the cruise brakes so we are not sure how good the other one is.

Yes it has a hand brake. Even when my son rides it down hill it never goes out of control fast. My son is special needs so it was perfect for him.

Drum brakes only. Also you have to pay attention on size of the rotor as the one I used was too small and did not work with this engine.

You can always remove the coaster brake, but if you do you will need to replace it with hand brakes, and it does not appear that the frame as ready for the hand brake apparatus. Because these bikes are so cheap to begin with, once you start replacing components, you will quickly discover that getting a cheap bike outfitted the way you want runs into more money than if you bought what you wanted at a bike shop to begin with.

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

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.

I have single speed bike and you brake with pedal. Its so muc better than hand brakes.

Both. I am using disc brakes, but the sides are not painted so v-brakes should work.

There is a wrist strap & I don't feel the hand brake is necessary. I love this stroller and totally recommend.

it is single speed and single brake. You should get a second Yes, only one speed. And only one hand brake. You should by one for the front as well, which is fairly easy to install e.g. the Pyramid - Mx1000 Alloy BMX Bicycle Brake, Front or Rear, Black

The handbrakes are for the person pushing and the are engaged by gripping ..like on a bicycle. They can also be locked by pushing the handles down for each side.
