ABSTRACT:
The present invention is a brake lever arrangement for a small transmission. The brake mechanism is actuated by the rotational movement of the brake lever which causes friction pucks to move into the brake disc. A spring coupled to the brake lever biases the brake lever in a non-braking position and aligns the brake lever with its plane of rotation to prevent dragging of the friction pucks on the brake disc. Also, a bracket may be provided which has an elongated slot for receiving the upper portion of the brake lever. The bracket aligns the brake lever and guides the movement of the brake lever along one direction.
