🛞 What Is a Sur-Ron LBX Foot Brake?


A foot brake on the Sur-Ron Light Bee X (LBX) is a hydraulic rear braking system that uses a pedal (mounted by your foot) connected to a master cylinder and caliper — similar to what you’d find on a dirt bike. Instead of just using the hand brake lever, you can apply rear braking power with your foot.


Typical Parts in a Foot Brake Kit




  • Hydraulic brake pedal and master cylinder



  • Brake line (often steel-braided)



  • Brake caliper and rotor mount or adapter



  • Hardware for installation

    Examples include:



  • Surron LBX/E Ride Pro Moto Foot Brake Kit – solid overall option for LBX setups



  • Surron Moto Foot Brake Kit – more “moto-style” feel and power



  • Surron Light Bee Foot Brake Kit – popular mid-tier choice



  • NTC Designs Surron Hydraulic Rear Foot Brake – a respected budget upgrade



  • Evr Surron LBX Footbrake – beefier, adjustable option for off-road use

    …and many more variations depending on budget, brand, and components.




✅ Why Foot Brakes Are Useful


🧠 1. More Natural, Dirt-Bike-Style Control


Using your foot for the rear brake is how motorcycle riders modulate braking — especially off-road. It lets you keep your hands fully on the bars for throttle and steering while adjusting speed with your foot.


🛑 2. Improved Braking Performance


Many stock LBX rear brakes (especially on hand-only setups) feel “squishy” or lack confidence under load. Aftermarket foot brakes typically provide:




  • Better pedal feel and modulation



  • Stronger, more consistent pedal force



  • More confidence for technical terrain and high-speed stops

    Riders upgrading often notice they can brake later and still stay in control — important on trails or urban routes.



🦾 3. Durability & Ergonomics


Aftermarket foot brake pedals are often CNC-machined from materials like aerospace-grade aluminum (e.g., 6061-T6), making them stronger and less prone to bending than stock parts. Many designs also have adjustable pedal angles and better compatibility with riding boots.


🧰 4. Better Customization & Setup


Foot brake kits vary in quality and feature sets:




  • Some come pre-bled (no bleeding hassle)



  • Others offer custom brake lines and upgraded calipers for even stronger performance.

    This lets riders tailor their setup to their style — from casual commuting to aggressive trail riding.




🤔 Who Should Buy One?


🟢 Great Fit For:




  • Riders who want better braking feel and control



  • Those who ride off-road or technical terrain



  • People who want a more motorcycle-like control scheme



  • Anyone tired of stock brakes that feel weak, mushy, or inconsistent



🔶 Considerations




  • Installation may require bleeding the line and adjusting fitment.



  • Some economy kits vary in quality — choosing a reliable brand helps avoid issues like leaks or poor pedal feel.

    (Community feedback varies on lower-end kits; proper bleeding and caliper matching matter.)




🏁 Final Take


Upgrading to a proper Sur-Ron LBX foot brake is one of the most impactful mods you can make for braking performance and rider confidence. Whether you’re trail-riding, commuting, or building a custom e-moto, a good foot brake setup improves control, safety, and ride quality.
