Noob here....1.5k miles. Riding careful, etc, etc.
Other day felt a little bit hot coming into a left-hand, 90 degree turn at an intersection. Natural instinct made me apply a "little bit" of brake (front and back). Everything ended up "ok," but the front wheel did shimmy just a wee bit. enough for me to take note and think...."gee, that time wasn't bad, but what's gonna happen if i do that at even faster speeds."
So -- i've read some on the subject but thought i'd start yet another thread...
How much can you, safely, use brakes in mid-turn?
