Why doesn the handbrake work?
This is due to a number of factors, including the fact that you can’t get a proper straight pull on the lever itself because its almost at shoulder height, but also because the handbrake itself operates on a small drum brake at the centre of the disc, and this small radius limits the braking torque effect it can exert. By relocating the cable anchor on the lever the braking effort can be improved (ask your dealer). A properly set-up and adjusted Cerbera handbrake can be made relatively effective.
