Rear wheel brake disc
The brake disc is screwed permanently to the wheel
hub
on a vehicle with a disc brake.
The brake lever is pressed to increase brake pressure.
The brake fluid is used to transfer pressure through
the brake lines to the cylinders in the brake calliper.
The braking force is boosted by a speed reduction and
applied to the brake linings. These apply the brake
disc mechanically. If the brake lever is pulled, the
brake linings are pressed against the brake disc, and
the movement of the wheel is decelerated until it
comes to a stop.
