Same with MTB, but I always have used front over rear, screaming down mountain tracks and using back break first is asking for trouble! The inertia of the bike moving forward means the front break is better for stopping, but the rear and to the slowing process. Now - does anyone know if all the gear on Brick lane is hooky? Wondered if there might be some levers and calipers down there, seeing a few on ebay which look ok?
