Hydraulic brake install on the Doodlebug minibike / Top speed run
Installed a hydraulic brake kit on the Doodlebug minibike. It took a total of about ten minutes to do the install. Did a top speed run to test the brakes?

Great upgrade

[@user-rn3vz8we9k]

The sound when you started it and let it idle made my soul smile man I miss mine so much I'm going on FB marketplace now

[@boa2143658709]

Love it, thank you my friend I've been looking for a bolt on upgrade for awhile. It's a bit annoying changing brake pads before refilling the fuel

[@jaylinsaenz1794]

Why do my hydraulic brakes lock up ?

[@frederickwoods5943]

I just put a hydraulic disc brake on my MURRAY "Track 2", replaced the band-brake without any cutting or welding by making a bolt-on caliper bracket. NOT a 10-minute job but I ended up with total adjustability. The disc mounted where the drum was, used coupling nuts for stand-offs. Cost=$80

[@Black66]

That sounds like a pretty nice addition!

[@rene_from_so_cal]

Very nice. I'll have to upgrade my 100cc Coleman with this mod. Great vid!

I swapped my mechanical breaks for the hydrolic on my db30 and it was the best upgrade ever! With alot go u need alot of WOAH! 🛑

[@GratefulEd907]

How does it compare when you think about how hard it is to pull the lever. I’m thinking it would be a good option for my daughters doodle bug if it’s easier for her to pull back she’s 9 and I’m in the process for removing the governor we got a header and a 19mm Mikuni style carburetor from eBay

Hey, @Black66 I have a doodlebug and I bought the same brake but whenever I hit the brakes the caliper moves in such a way that the caliper itself (not just the pads) is getting chewed up real bad. Just wondering if you have any tips on how to stop the caliper from moving around since it has a system on it that makes it move.

[@warzone7571]

I have the same problem

[@mythicalcircle]

@@warzone7571 My issue was that the idle was set too high, so when I was rolling and hit the brake, the caliper was taking too much load, I turned my idle down to where the tire doesn't spin at all, then put one washer on each side of the mount between the frame and the mounting part of the caliper. Hope this helps, I spent months figuring this one out.

I'm not sure. Even if it doesn't, it wouldn't be too hard to fabricate a bracket to make it fit.

I just bought a hydraulic brake for my doodlebug. But i apparently bought the wrong one. The spacing for the mounting holes are off and it seems like there wouldnt be enough clearance between the brake and the tire if i did install it. Is there anyway i could make it work or will i need to buy a whole new brake?

[@Black66]

If your willing to weld or add spacers you can pretty much get any brake to work. The link is in the description of the video for the brake I used. Check out the playlist on the channel for many more brake installs. kzbin.info/www/bejne/h57SoKNme9Crha8

[@jakehart7048]

@black66. Thanks! I dont have a welder. So I'd have to find someone who could weld a bracket on. But that's kind of the route im thinking of going, as i dont have much for money and dont want to have to buy a whole new brake if i dont have to

The quality on these brakes are absolute garbage they work good at 1st but longevity is terrible..

[@Black66]

That is because the pads are small. Simply change out pads or go with a dual piston. Easy fix.

[@ThePhatGuy1776]

I've actually had problems with the guide pins bending under braking stress. I finally said to hell with it and got two piston Chinese atv caliper and master cylinder and made it work I now have a foot brake that is solid and will stop a mack truck..
