  1. Bicycles generally come equipped with brakes when you buy them at a bicycle shop, from the internet, or at a store.

    The exception would be if you were buying a track bicycle.  Brakes are against the rules of track racing and are not necessary.  Some people ride fixed (without a freewheel) on the street and do not have brakes but usually they make that choice themselves.  Even most fixed bikes designed for street use come with brakes that the rider removes if he/she doesn't want to use them.  I built my first fixed bike and never added brakes.

    Some BMX bikes and chopped bikes also lack brakes.

    It is not something you need to worry about.  If you are buying a cruiser it will have brakes.  No, not all have brakes, but only because someone removed them.


  2. no not all
