SmartBrake is an advanced electronic braking system designed for bicycles (2, 3 or 4 wheels). It uses a hydraulic brake caliper (disc or rim) that is activated by an electric servo motor. The system is controlled wirelessly via RF/Bluetooth from various remotes, including a hand controller, thumb release remote and brake lever remote.
SmartBrake is completely wireless and operated via Bluetooth/RF signals. It offers smooth electronic braking and allows users to brake using remote controls, which is particularly beneficial for adaptive sports or cyclists with limited hand functionality. It also includes a fail-safe system, which automatically applies the brakes if the signal is lost or disrupted.
Yes, SmartBrake is delivered as a complete brake kit, fully vented and ready to install. Remove the old braking system you want to replace and install SmartBrake. We recommend retaining another independent braking system to maximise safety during use.
When ordering SmartBrake, you need to specify the lengths you need to place the cables as you wish. You will receive customised lengths according to your needs.
Yes, you do not need to switch on SmartBrake Hybrid to use the brake lever. To use the hand control, you need to switch on SmartBrake.
Installation should be done by a professional mechanic as it requires the correct setup of the hydraulic brake system and incorrect installation can be dangerous. The product manual includes a step-by-step guide, but professional expertise is recommended.
Yes, SmartBrake supports different types of calipers, including Tektro Auriga Twin (hydraulic disc brake) and Magura MT5 and HS11 (hydraulic rim brakes). These variations ensure that it can be adapted to different types of bikes/tricycles and user needs.
SmartBrake has a built-in fail-safe function. If the signal between the remote control and the brake unit is interrupted, or if the battery is low, the system automatically activates the brakes. In addition, the user is always recommended to have another independent braking system to maximise safety during use.
The range depends on the specific remote control used:
Signal range may vary depending on interference and obstacles.
Yes, SmartBrake components are designed to withstand wet weather conditions. However, it is important not to immerse them in water or use high-pressure water to clean them. Make sure the charging port is properly sealed to prevent water damage.
This can happen because of:
Yes, firmware updates can be done using the nRF Toolbox apps. Connect your brake system to your smartphone or tablet via Bluetooth to update and customise your SmartBrake components. Instructions for updates are available on the SmartBrake website.
If any of the remote controls or brake units run out of battery, SmartBrake will activate its fail-safe system and apply the brakes automatically. You will need to charge the system or replace the battery to continue riding safely with the hand control. The Magura brake lever will still be functional.
It takes approximately 3.5 hours to fully charge the brake unit.
Yes, if you experience problems, please visit our support page or send an email to post@smartgroup.no. There are also troubleshooting tips in the user manual for common issues such as low battery or weak braking power.
