Coaster Hub

Coaster Hub Brakes are commonly fitted in the rear wheel of many BMX style and other children’s bicycles. They are very reliable and easy to operate; the rider simply applies backward pedal pressure to activate. The rider can then “coast” without pedalling if desired.

Coaster hub brakes come in several different models. Regardless of which style is fitted to your bicycle, only minimal maintenance is required by the rider. The coaster hub sprocket should be kept clean and lubricated whenever the chain is oiled.

Any adjustments or replacements are best handled by a professional bicycle mechanic since the coaster hub’s internal mechanisms are very complex.
