Captain Fastbastard Mayhem Posted August 21, 2016 Share pointless display, IMO. The amount of torque those things out out would destroy almost any brake setup, especially since it's still under power. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frosty Posted August 21, 2016 Share In my limited knowledge of mechanical engineering, or that it's 25 years since I last did physical science, the force required from the brake calipers needs to be equal to the inertia of the rotating object in order to stop it. Correct?  Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Correct?  Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalkyeah, I think so. Or, in non scientific terms - a metric ****-ton. No way that the brakes would have been able to do that, or the force of those motors behind the lathe. Those things are STRONG. Edited August 21, 2016 by Myles Mayhew Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No human will ever hand a brake that much abuse. Maybe a really really overweight sumo wrestler with a penchant for looooooooong straight downhills and only one single piston brake.... fanievb and Captain Fastbastard Mayhem 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
