i broke one of my levers once but didnt stop to fix it, one of those 10 up POB days from the heady 90's, instead i relied on my front break only. when the cable snapped it was only the scooter i hit that stopped me going under a parcel force truck. you need two breaks always, fixed gearing for the rear counts.
