Abstract
The braking systems of motorized and motor-assisted vehicles can be quickly assembled within a factory with secure connections. Controls of the braking systems are connected to brakes of the braking system using a snap-fit connection without introducing air into the brake fluid line. Once assembled, the controls and the brakes are securely connected until deliberately released, thereby providing a safe and reliable connection during operation of the motorized or motor-assisted vehicles.
