Ok, just spoke (had an tiny argument) with a novice biker. He says you should use the rear brake when riding normally and only use the front in emergencies. :disapprove:
I use the front during normal riding as the rear is too easy to lock up. I use both in emergencies finding the balance between front and rear. The front also has a better feel to me.
He also stated that he frequently locks-up the rear, so how does it make sense to him?
Anywayz, is there some kind of old biking wisdom that I am missing here???
Peace
