Want the strongest stopping power? Here's which Evee models have dual disc brakes — the S1 and S1 Pro — what the others use, and whether you need dual discs for city riding.
The Evee S1 and S1 Pro come with dual disc brakes — a disc at both the front and rear for the strongest, most consistent stopping. Other Evee models use a disc-and-drum combination, which is still safe and reliable for everyday city riding. If braking performance is a priority, the S1 family is the one to look at.
Which Evee models have dual disc brakes?
The Evee S1 (PKR 206,000) and Evee S1 Pro (PKR 272,000) are fitted with dual disc brakes — a disc brake on both wheels. This pairs naturally with their higher speeds and stronger motors, giving confident, repeatable stopping. See their full specs on the models page.
What are dual disc brakes and why do they matter?
A disc brake grips a metal disc on the wheel for strong, consistent braking. Dual disc means you get that on both the front and rear, so stopping power is stronger and more predictable — especially useful at higher speeds, under load, with a pillion, or in the rain. For faster or heavier riding, dual discs give a real margin of confidence.
What brakes do the other Evee models use?
The rest of the range typically uses a disc-and-drum combination — usually a front disc with a rear drum. Drum brakes are sealed, low-maintenance, and perfectly safe for the calmer speeds of everyday city commuting. So while they're not dual disc, they're well matched to how those models are ridden.
Do you need dual disc brakes?
It depends on your riding:
- Yes, they help if you ride at higher speeds, carry a pillion or load, or are a heavier rider.
- Not essential for relaxed, low-speed city commuting, where a disc-and-drum setup stops safely and reliably.
Whatever you choose, keep the brakes adjusted and the pads in good condition — good maintenance matters more than the brake type for everyday safety.
Which should you buy?
- Strongest braking: the S1 or S1 Pro with dual disc brakes.
- Everyday city riding: any mid-range Evee — its disc-and-drum brakes are safe and low-maintenance.
Always confirm the exact brake setup for your chosen model on its spec sheet or at the showroom. Compare the range on the price list.

Which Evee has dual disc brakes?
The Evee S1 and S1 Pro come with dual disc brakes — a disc on both the front and rear wheel for the strongest stopping.
Are dual disc brakes better?
They give stronger, more consistent stopping, which helps at higher speeds, under load, and in the rain. For calm city riding, a disc-and-drum combo is also safe.
What brakes do other Evee models use?
Most use a disc-and-drum combination — typically a front disc and a rear drum — which is safe, reliable, and low-maintenance for city speeds.
Do I need dual disc brakes for city riding?
Not necessarily — a disc-and-drum setup stops safely at city speeds. Dual discs are most useful for faster riding, heavier riders, or carrying a pillion.
