Abstract:
1. A brake method of a bicycle using a brake system, the brake system comprising an electronic apparatus positioned on a bracket of the bicycle, a brake device, and a plurality of brake sensors, the method comprising: adjusting the bracket to make the electronic apparatus be in a horizontal state using an electronic level instrument of the electronic apparatus; marking slopes on an electronic map provided by a global position system (GPS) of the electronic apparatus; determining whether a gradient value of the electronic apparatus detected by an accelerometer of the electronic apparatus exceeds or equals a predetermined gradient value under the condition that the bicycle is determined to be descending by comparing position information acquired from the GPS when the bicycle reaches the marked slopes; determining whether the bicycle is braking improperly according to brake operations detected by the plurality of brake sensors, when the gradient value exceeds or equals the predetermined gradient value; determining that the bicycle is braking improperly when front brakes of the brake device are operated prior to operations of the rear brakes, and sending a brake command to the brake device to terminate an improper brake operation; and tightening and then loosening brake cables of a front wheel and a rear wheel of the bicycle repeatedly for a predetermined number times within a predetermined time period using the brake device according to the brake command.
