blaster brakes

[Misfitsbob]

Why have I only rode one blaster ever, with rear brakes? What goes wrong with them? Mine don't work, I've only had it a few days so I've not really messed with them.

Mine work, they'll kill the engine and skid the tires for some distance!

Thats what blasters are know for, they just straight up suck if you don't know what to do with them. If you clean them and have them adjusted right you can lock them up just like hydraulic ones. It might be a pain in the ass, but you could save a few bucks if you know what to do with them. Get a shorty cable, and clean the caliper out REALLY good. After that adjust them and try them out.
