We all know about wireless shifting and dropper posts, but why haven`t we seen wireless braking yet? While watching his children playing with RC cars master inventor Blake Samson had a light bulb moment! He turned the RC remote sideways and noticed that it looked similar to the grips and brake levers on a mountain bike, and the idea came to him. Wireless brakes are finally within reach, but how will he turn his 'braking' edge idea into a reality? Anna Cipullo talks to Blake to learn the process of creating the world's first wireless mountain bike brakes.

I was sceptical at first, especially without the haptic feedback, but Blake showed what control levels he has with an amazing ride. As a disabled cyclist, this would be a great thing to explore due to my weak finger strength, but probably more on my motorbike than my mountain bike. I think that Blake could well be the next Mike Boroughs, both them have or had crazy ideas that eventually become common place. Great work Blake and GMBN.

@PhillioDoede 7 месяцев назад

Haptic feedback isn't something you would need. You don't get any feedback regular hydraulic brakes from the hydraulic fluid or cable housing, whatever you feel from the brakes is transmitted through the frame and fork so in that sense a electronically actuated hydraulic brake system would be no different.

@v8srock 7 месяцев назад

You could build in a high resistance point on the trigger and have it adjustable, this would be like setting the bite point. Think like a cam plate where the tolerance for the trigger becomes tighter.

@PhillioDoede 7 месяцев назад

@@v8srock I get the idea but the resistance on the lever be a fixed aspect of the brakes and have the system adjust how much of that lever throw you need (force on the brakes) based on how fast you are going. All kinds of ways to do it with a fully electronic system.

@ExplosiveNotes 7 месяцев назад

Technicaly they are hydraulic brakes with additional crap and you gonna struggle to make that additinal crap smaller. I have hard time believing, that anyone would preffer bulky calipers over two hoses. While I was wrong plenty of times in the past, most probably wireless brakes would have to have some advantage over hydraulics to caught on. For that you'd need to outengineer that hydraulic calipers, which honestly I don't think can be done with current tech. Hydraulics: + work without batteries + don't need to be paired + self adjust for pad wear - hoses Your wireless construction (even after refinment, if the priciple ramain the same): + no hoses - always heavier that equivalent hosed version - additional failure points

This has been bouncing around my head for years. Flying/driving RC, riding MTB but never put the two together. Well done Blake, stick with it mate. High end transmitter (TX) with dual rates, exponential and end points. Different braking "modes" for different trail types could be setup, expo S curves for sensitivity/modulation and back/front bias, adjustable bite point, fail safe settings in the event of signal loss or low voltage ... TX programming will blow your mind. Low latency wifi servos (no servo wires required to RX) with control arms (titanium turnbuckles from helis or cars) on ball links instead of cable, short servo arms for maximum mechanical advantage ... Blake's E-Brake Mk2 could shine. Add proggressive springs to levers to get that feedback feel.

For proper 'failsafe' brakes like a Lorry or train, you need brakes that are held fully on and the mechanism pulls them off when its powered up. Pulling the lever then shuts the mechanism off and allows the spring to put on the brakes. That way if the battery mechanism fails the brakes come on.

@brucehamilton6019 7 месяцев назад

What are cables but braided steel wires? What are smaller wires for electronics, braided wires? So you're not going too far away....I was sitting around thinking last night, bc that's part of the design process. I put the bike in front of me and I'm looking at multiple areas and ideas simultaneously. While away from the bike, ideas come to mind, but when looking at the physical, practicality is a strong guide in reality...For instance, where I like electronics in one area, and the Industry is pushing it out which is icing here, is a front mech. (and a gear hub with an idler pulley/clutch takes care of a whole lot back there; also think E-bike) My cable comes out of an open down tube, around a plastic thingy, to the backside of the seat tube. An E-mech is the obvious winner here. Changing the swing arm position to the side, with the "box" in front of the seat tube, blimey! Now I can go 2.5" in the back, and boost the fork. Wait 'till you hear about the tandem. No, I'll keep that for the AT.

You can get force feedback (look at driving simulators as an example) but I don't know if you can get it to be compact enough
