An electric brake system (100) for braking a vehicle comprises a central transmission gear (3), a first engagement member (7) configured to rotate with the central transmission gear (3) around the axis (A), and a second engagement member (11) configured to selectively engage or disengage the first engagement member (7) depending on a position of the second engagement member (11). A parking brake actuator (15) is configured to move the second engagement member (11) between a service brake position (S) and a parking brake position (P). In the service brake position (S) the engagement members (7, 11) are mechanically disengaged, and the central transmission gear (3) is free to rotate independent of the second engagement member (11). In the parking brake position (P) the engagement members (7, 11) are mechanically engaged to prevent the central transmission gear (3) from rotating in the brake deactivating direction.
