A first hydraulic cylinder actuator is mountable on the frame adjacent the rear wheel and is operatively connected to the master hydraulic cylinder. A rear wheel brake pad is connected to the hydraulic cylinder actuator and is operable thereby. There is a second hydraulic cylinder actuator mountable on the frame adjacent the rear wheel and connected to the rear wheel brake pad. A third hydraulic cylinder actuator is mountable on the frame adjacent the front wheel and is operatively connected to the second hydraulic cylinder actuator so as to be operable by the latter and a front wheel braking device is connected to the third actuator.
