| HOW THE BRAKES WORK |  |
The brakes are simple machines that slow the wheels down with your help. There are three different kinds of brakes.
Long arm brakes are found on most mountain bikes and hybrids. The long arm brakes use two straight brake arms connected by a horizontal cable, and these brakes provide great stopping power.
Cantilever brakes, otherwise known as short arm brakes, are on some hybrids and mountain bikes. The brake arms are shorter and they are connected by a triangular cable. They give plenty of stopping power, but not as much as long arm brakes.
Caliper brakes are used generally on road bikes. They're very easy to regulate but they don't give enough stopping power.
