Mechanical discs certainly claim to be an easier, more adjustable alternative to hydraulics, but does the lack of power outweigh their simplicity? To find out, I have put four market-leading options ...

As riders increasingly seek versatile electric bikes, California-based e-bike brand Kingbull has introduced a distinctive ...

Glazing occurs when brake pads are exposed to excessive heat levels, often caused by bad driving habits, like riding brakes ...

Brakes are one of the most important components of any car, and most modern cars come equipped with a hydraulic braking system, which needs brake fluid to function. What does brake fluid exactly do?

When it comes to electric bicycle brakes, the two main options are mechanical and hydraulic disc brakes. But which should you choose? The ...

The technology, known as hydraulic brake-by-wire, removes the mechanical link between the brake system and the brake pedal.

Your brakes are a hydraulic system, which means that fluid makes them work. Pressing the brake pedal shoves brake fluid out to the brakes at the four corners of your car.

Brembo is launching a new by-wire braking system, called Sensify, that the company expects to be in production by 2024. It's a modular setup that can use either an electric motor to directly ...

Instead of using the pressure of fluids in a hydraulic system, ZF's brake-by-wire system uses an electric motor to generate braking force at each wheel.

You leave your cable-actuated brake system in place but remove your caliper and replace it with a Hy/Rd caliper. The caliper is a self-contained hydraulic system that uses a cable to actuate.

This translates to increased clamping pressure on the car’s braking system, be it via vacuum or hydraulic pressure, or even electronic actuation. Where that takes place is inside the brake booster.
