The key components of a BMX brake system are the brake lever, brake cable, brake caliper, brake pads, and the braking surface on the wheel rim. When the rider squeezes the brake lever, the cable pulls on the caliper, causing the brake pads to press against the wheel rim. This friction between the brake pads and the wheel rim slows down the rotation of the wheel, ultimately controlling the speed and stopping power of the BMX bike.
