The drum brake structure of motorcycle is relatively simple. It is a purely mechanical structure, mainly composed of brake cover, brake pad, brake pot, brake shaft, brake rocker arm, etc. The biggest advantage of this kind of brake is its strong reliability and later maintenance costs. Low. However, because the drum brake is a relatively direct mechanical operation, its braking effect is not as powerful as the disc brake, especially in the long-distance braking state, the heat dissipation of the brake pot is a problem. However, drum brakes are also beneficial in some extreme road conditions. For example, on muddy roads, there is no need to be afraid of foreign objects entering the brakes, which will affect the braking effect, and because of the large braking area, the service life of its brake pads will be longer.
