Hunter got it right! a vee belt goes from the engine to the alloy disc, so that when you accelerate the brake shoes inside expand  gripping the drum with the cog on it that connects to the back wheel and off you go Cool

No idea Roll Eyes and yes Blair Grin I think when it engages is largely dependent on the strenth of the springs that hold back the shoes Undecided
