    Default Replacing Handbrake

    What is the procedure to replace worn out hand brakes on an ST162?

    Also, are there any upgrade options?


    Including cables and brakes...

    the hand brake is a shoe setup inside the rear rotor/hub.

    i don't see the need for an "upgrade" once you replace them and adjust the cable they should pull firm and tight.

    i'll have a look in my bgb when i get home but i don't think anything speacial is required.
