Title: Rear Floating Brake
Post by: skiracer on August 08, 2021, 05:56:59 PM
So what's the advantage of the full floating rear brake?  I'm guessing the brake is more efficient being connected to the frame instead of the swing arm?

Under hard braking there is far less brake hop with full floating rear brake.
