Hey Millsman, .. Intros section,,, you should check it out, give the guys in the rest of the forum notice you're on board. A lot of the guys around here really like the pocket bike type hydraulic brakes. However, if you into tinkering the stock brakes can be adjusted at the caliper just depends on how fast or how much you stopping. Welcome to OMB, the best minibiking forum around.
