Abstract: A back pedal brake hub having a clutch that is axially shiftable for selective engagement with a brake assembly to effect braking when the clutch is shifted in one direction or with a shell to transmit forward drive motion when the clutch is shifted in another direction with no axial loading of the ball races supporting the shell regardless of the direction in which the clutch is shifted. The engagement between the clutch and the shell is accomplished by means of mating teeth or dogs integrally connected with each of the clutch and the shell so as to provide positive form-locking engagement.
