  • Wouldn't it make more sense to put the third brake on the front wheel?

    That would fly in the face of decades of tandem practice, it's unlikely that they've been doing it wrong all these years. Tandem rear brakes actually do something useful, unlike on solos where if the front brake is working properly the rear tyre is barely touching the ground.

  • But why put it on the back wheel and not the front?

    Because you don't want to be dragging your front brake through a damp downhill corner
