Evening fxxxrr and greenfielder,
When the photos of fxxxrr’s handbrake photos were posted a couple of weeks go it answered a question that I couldn’t answer for the life of me when the handbrake discussion first arose when greenfielder first bought his machine and there was a discussion with gml about it. I just couldn’t see how a pulley would be utilised as a brake. I agreed with you greenfielder that the best guess was that a circular section bar would rest in the pulley. The real answer is way more ingenious! What a beautiful piece of imaginative bush engineering! I love it.
. The million dollar question is.....how well does it work.
Cheers,
