Rear Brake Shoe Spring Increased: Benefits for your Lambretta

The increased spring for rear brake shoes is a simple but very effective technical improvement for your Lambretta. This component, designed to increase the return force of the shoes, offers numerous advantages in terms of safety and braking performance.

Why choose an oversized spring?

In Lambretta models, the rear brake shoes can remain slightly braked due to the thickness and poor lubrication of the brake cable. This problem causes the so-called “vitrification” of the shoes, or a surface hardening that compromises the braking ability and accelerates wear.

The increased spring exerts a higher load, ensuring a more decisive return of the shoes and preventing permanent friction against the drum. In this way, the false return of the shoes is avoided, maintaining the braking always ready and reactive.

Compatibility and applications

The oversized spring is compatible with all engines, including the original ones, of the following Lambretta models: S1, S2, TV2, S3, TV3, Special, SX, DL and Serveta. It is an ideal component for both daily use and for restorations and tuned engines, ensuring reliability and safety.

Main advantages

• Greater sensitivity and readiness in rear braking

• Reduction of jaw wear thanks to effective return

• Prevention of vitrification of the jaws

• Quick and easy installation

• Compatibility with numerous Lambretta models

Conclusions

Adopting a larger spring for the rear brake shoes is a quick and economical intervention that significantly improves the safety and durability of your Lambretta’s braking system. A small technical detail that makes the difference in daily driving and in the maintenance of the vehicle.
