Work Item
ASTM WK90702
Revision of F2641-23 Standard Consumer Safety Specification for Recreational Powered Scooters and Pocket Bikes
Rationale
The original wording in 6.1.5 was design restrictive. By introducing the non-mandatory language of “should”, we allow the manufacturer to use the opposite orientation provided that the braking system is clearly labeled. The addition of the second brake should not constitute a change in orientation of which brake is activated so as not to confuse riders of both single and dual brake products.
