Well you're a runner.. aren't they all skinny fuckers? Hmm Ben Johnson.. okay maybe not.. but then anyone is skinny compared to me..
I think I get what you say above. Would the force applied to the rear triangle differ between rear wheel braking on a road bike and skidding when fixed? It's the same thing isn't it? In which case I'm sticking with my "it'll be fine ya wuss bag" answer.
