Abstract: In an aspect, a remote-controlled brake for a human-powered vehicle is provided and includes a support structure that is mountable to a frame of the vehicle, a shoe that is pivotable between a braking position and a non-braking position, a motor, and a local controller. In the braking position the shoe is abutted with a wheel of the vehicle to stop forward rolling of the wheel, while permitting backward rolling of the vehicle. In the non-braking position the shoe permits forward and backward rolling of the wheel. The motor is operatively connected to the shoe to move the shoe to and from both the braking and non-braking position. The local controller includes an electronic reception unit that is configured to receive signals from a remote controller, wherein the local controller is programmed to control operation of the motor based on the signals.
