coaster brake

The rim brake began to supersede the coaster brake in the 1970s.

Available in 7- and 8-speed with or without a coaster brake.

The bike uses an old-fashioned coaster brake and puts the chain behind a covered guard so it will not catch on clothing.

Until about 2000 Kronan bikes were only available in a limited number of colors, with a single gear and coaster brakes.

This refinement led to the 1890s invention of coaster brakes.

There was no coaster brake on this machine!

The coaster brake can be found in both single-speed and internally geared hubs.

Another disadvantage is that the coaster brake is completely dependent on the chain being fully intact.

If the chain breaks, the coaster brake provides no braking power whatsoever.

Braking was accomplished by backpedaling, which activated a rear coaster brake.
