Sprocket Brakes

Once upon a time in Sweden

Deep winter night near Drottningholm ... Stop. A Swedish long fork bike is a very clean affair. Metal esthetics of simplicity, so to speak. And those rotors on the rear wheel, they obstruct the view on the extravagant rear wheels considerably. One disc is difficult to remove, because the chain runs over it. The other? In case you have a moose encounter a functioning brake comes in handy. So one disc for both? Such or similar ideas may have been the starting point for a rather ingenious thing: the Drevbroms. Further in the South we normally use the sprocket brake for it.

Cleaning up the chopper rear wheel

Installation requires wrenching skills and a welding license, and the mount is designed for rigid frames. Once the sprocket brake is successfully installed, chain grease or chain spray is a no-no from this point on. You'll have to ride dry, but there is dry lube that adheres well. It also has aesthetic advantages if the left side of the chopper isn't constantly marred by spun-off chain grease.

Therefore, for all chopper builders, Swedish aesthetes, etc. we offer the sprocket brake from Tolle Engineering AB and any necessary spare parts, such as brake pads, seals and sprocket / brake disc.
