Motorcycle disc brake
Motorcycle disc brake. The outer tyre has been removed, revealing this metal disc that surrounds the hub. The brake pads (black, upper right) fit either side of the disc and are forced together to slow and stop the disc and wheel by applying friction. This is done using mechanical, pneumatic or hydraulic forces. The metal rod at centre is part of the motorcycle fork, holding the wheel in place and connecting it to the rest of the vehicle

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from Science Photo Library showcases the intricate details of a motorcycle disc brake. With the outer tire removed, we are granted a glimpse into the inner workings of this essential safety component. The metal disc enveloping the hub takes center stage, while black brake pads rest on either side, ready to engage in friction and bring the wheel to a halt. Whether through mechanical, pneumatic, or hydraulic forces, these brakes play a crucial role in ensuring smooth transportation. The photograph also reveals an intriguing metal rod at the center – part of the motorcycle fork – which not only holds the wheel securely but also connects it to other vital parts of this marvelously engineered vehicle. It is evident that precision and technology have been seamlessly integrated into every aspect of this motorbike's design. Transportation enthusiasts and engineering aficionados will appreciate how this image encapsulates both form and function. The steel composition exudes strength and durability while symbolizing technological advancement within the realm of motorcycles. As we admire this detailed snapshot, let us acknowledge its significance in promoting safe travel on two wheels. This visual masterpiece serves as a reminder that even seemingly small components like disc brakes can make all the difference when it comes to ensuring our well-being on our journeys.
