ABSTRACT:
A rotation actuated internal lever braking system for bicycles. Braking is applied by rotation of a handle bar grip through a lever system to pull flexible cables operating friction brakes at one or both wheels. A pair of cable pulling units may be provided, each individually controlling a brake on the front or rear wheel. If desired, cables to both wheel brakes may be actuated by a single unit. The units may be designed for selective self locking or self releasing when placed in braking position.
