The product description indicates that the bike comes with dual brake levers. Could you please elaborate on what this is and how it works.

There are two brake levers for each brake. Two small ones on the top of the steering bar, so big ones behind the curve of the handles (you are going to use them while leaning on it).I used the small ones once, because the right big lever broke.

Dual brake levers means it comes with the standard brake STIs on the front of the drops as well as brake levers on the front of the handle bars near the stem. This can be useful if you are doing city riding with lots of stopping.

This bike does not come equipped with 2 sets of brake levers. There is 1 front brake lever, and 1 rear brake lever.

Linear pull brakes has 2 separate arms on each side of the tire...I call them brake pads myself. This bike does not have that type of brake no matter what the description says! This bike is the old fashion one speed better be fast with your feet type. I enjoyed riding it as the seat is padded which helps when you hit speed bumps.

I agree with SPC. While I don't have disc brakes on any of my bikes, I don't see why it wouldn't work. There are two "pincers" to the rear frame and there seems to be some limited top/bottom - forward/rear adjustment to the frame anchor points.

no this bike is hand brakes only. So far this bike is a good one. Our boys, 4 of them(9, 8, 7, & 6) our big bike riders and this is the 3rd one this size. It seems as good and maybe a little better than the others. It's a good bike for the money.

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

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

Hello there,The front and rear brakes are on the handle bars, and they work well.I bought this trike last April and I just love it!!!!!!! I ride everyday at least four miles and have make a twenty two miles trek on it. My friend bought a less expensive one and he is very regretful that he did so. Good Luck,Carole

Only the hand brakes, I have had used hand brakes for years, they work very well. One control works the front brake, the other the rear brake. We rented bicycles with a cruising bike, I almost was run over because the brakes did not engage quickly enough.

The bike has front brakes and standard rear sprocket brakes. When your hooked up to the bike the rear sprocket brakes will still work to slow both bikes. We really love this bike,

Yes a back brake. If you buy this bike make sure the front frame is not bent. I recommend an American made bike not this one from China

The bike has brifters, to change gears you push the brake lever inward, to shift in the opposite direction there is a small black tab you push down on the inner side of the brake hood.

Based on feedback from other reviews I replaced the brakes before I used the bike! I am very very happy with the bike overall - by upgrading the brakes, the chain tensioner, and new rim tape. This is a screaming bike,make sure you have a bike shop give it a tune-up before riding.

Yes, they come with both, but...... I had to modify the throttle grip (drill a hole and add an extension) to make it work, I believe these are made for bicycles not motorcycles.

I'm not sure in the specifics of that bike. But it seemed to be pretty basic. You can use disc or v brakes and it's a Presta tube.

B: I'm not wise enough to retrieve the photos regarding your inquiry. I would suggest articles by Sheldon Brown (now deceased) at Harris Cyclery. This author explains the details of brake systems and the various levers which can mount to the bars and ends you may have.

I'm not sure because it's a pedal brake. You use the pedals to use that brake.

Both. If you reverse pedal it brakes and also there is a handlebar brake for the front tire.
