Spin Bikes with pad brakes are equipped with a braking system based on 1 or 2 felt pads. The single brake is vertical and acts on the flywheel from above - the double brake acts on the flywheel laterally. On these bikes the traction is almost always fixed gear - the transmission can be by chain or belt. Among all the brands in the catalog, the models with the best quality/price ratio are the Toorx SRX 70-80-90 spin bikes , all equipped with belt transmission, silent and maintenance-free.
