does the brake raddle

No not at all. It uses a flex brake so instead of using the undiald spring brake it has no rattle. The scooter is great and probly that best scooter for the price. The hole scooter itself is made very very nice and of high quality materials. I do many many tricks on this scooter each day. (Triple tail whips, bri flips, ect) and its holds up great. It has the quality of a scooter that is worth $200 to $250. I have probably a good sold 48 hours of continual use and the scooter is still dialed. (I'm outside 5 hours each day using this scooter, it's great.)

No. Only the two front wheels swivel. The back wheels are where the brakes are applied and they roll back & forward when in motion.

Yes, it does have brakes. When in a standing position you can put on the brakes. This is the second one we've had. The old one still is good, just the plastic on the arms wore off. My husband is going into a care home so I wanted him to have a newer one for there.

It has the hand brake on the side, and a handle in the middle to switch from peddling and coasting... So yes it has both.

YES IT DOES. You squeeze the hand-brake and press down the silver button. Squeeze the hand-brake to release. It's a little cranky but works fine. Don't rely on any parking brake on a slope.

yes it does. it is similar to other less sophisticated brake controllers when you hit the manual override. it is a slider switch and the further you slide it the closer to the max you have the controller set for it will get. after all the use of this controller I have I am still not totally happy with it. I find myself using the manual override a lot to make the brakes hit harder than the controller ever seems to grab.

yes after you squeeze the handle there is a button you press in that locks the brakes to release squeeze the handle again.

no it does not. secondly a wheel has to be spoked differently for a coaster brake because the force is in the opposite direction of accelerating.

It doesn't.In fact I brought it to a local bike store and had the brakes changed for $40.Poorly designed brakes.

Yes it has brakes. We just use it between the car and long hallways to doctor appointments. Meant to be pushed by someone.

Yes, its part of the main unit. it connects to the frame to prevent the axle from turning when brakes are applied.

My wife has not had and problems with the brakes. She has been using it for three months now.

Yes it does, I'd recommend a higher quality derailleur though. This broke on my little brother a week after use. (Casual riding, nothing remotly stressful on it)

I have never had a problem. I know you can make the brake tight as you want.

No, the arm in movable and you can set the arm between the brakes and the forks or on the other side of the calipers. Whatever works for your bike.

If you pull down on the brakes, they will lock in place. I hope that helps!

The peddles brake, too (with the usual pushing-back motion). We've been really pleased with this bike!
