Still confused about front and rear braking system. Is it correct that the front brake is controlled by hand and rear brake is controlled by foot?

The front brake is similar to a bicycle brake: you pull a lever and the pad touches the wheel. The rear "brake" is really just pressing the rear mudguard down onto the rear wheel to slow it.

Yes. You start braking by pressing your heel on the flexible plastic fender on the back tire. Then to stop more firmly or more suddenly you squeeze the hand brake on the handlebars. Squeezing on the handlebar brake alone will result in upending the scooter, just like if you applied the front brakes on a bicycle alone without also simultaneously using the back brakes.

The front brake is controlled by hand. The front brake cable runs to a small metal pad on a pivot. The back brake is a flexible piece of metal under the fender that you step back on - no cable attachment. I found the back brake to be unnecessary and it made a boinging noise on all but the smoothest surfaces so I uninstalled it but kept the fender that came with it. It has been several years so maybe they have improved the back brake. The front brake is very smooth. I use the Xootr daily and am used to leaning back when I have to use the brake abruptly.

Yes, that's true. The front brake is activated by an ordinary bicycle-type handlebar lever. To slow the the rear wheel, one presses back on the rear fender with one's heel. On most less-expensive scooters, this would be the only way of slowing down.

Correct. To brake the rear wheel, you stand on one foot and press your other foot on top of the little fender/bumper to slow the wheel. You can brake front and back at the same time. Back break takes a bit of balance and practice, hope that helps... Awesome scooters.

There is a brake on your right hand. But I don't think it is a handbrake. It can be only used to lock the stroller, and it is not for control the speed. But for a stroller, I think it is enough.

Front and rear lights. Turn signals work both in front and rear, and brake lights works both lights also. Front has a loud beeper with several options of sound. Its fine but the only problem I got was that front got wet during a rain and went crazy beeping that couldn´t get stopped.

They are. You cannot move both forward. They have a toe brake axis which is completely independent though .

The brakes are hand brakes. They seem to work just fine. You can pedal backwards without effect to your heart's content.

Yes, the bike has both hand and foot brakes. My daughter hasn't quite figured out how to use the hand brakes, but they are there.

Yes, this bike has a rear-wheel coaster brake as well as a front-wheel hand brake.

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

Yes, front and rear. The bolt is not the same for front and back so if they don't say front or back it is both.

You cannot stop....there is no brake. It's like a skateboard...you have to slow down or jump off. Your foot can get "caught" if you fall forward. It's not an easy device....if you get the hang of the balance, you dont really have an issue with your foot getting caught, but it happens while learning.You don't want your foot jammed into it...the front of you ankle should NOT touch when you put your feet in...you "balance" on it. Only the soles of your feet should touch the skate cycle....if that makes sense.

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

Yes it has foot brakes. Simply your kid uses his legs to turn the pedals backwards then the rear tire locks.

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.

The front comes with sensors and the rear do not. Only the rear brake pads needs sensors. One per rear pad.

One hand brake and one foot brake. The other one that is red has 2 hand brakes on the front wheel.

Yes, you can pedal backwards to break or use the hand brake, says so right in the description at the top.

They are plug an play. Just plug them in to a USB port and if you're flying FSX they take over the function of turning and braking. You push down with each foot in the direction you want your plane to go, and you press down with your toes to apply brakes. It's really very simple. If you have any further problem you may be able to find a video on Youtube or you can call the manufacturer for assistance. Good flying.
