  • point is, there is no good reason not to have one there. in certain situations it just is safer. personal choice/preference is a good enough reason on its own, don't argue for 'brakless' on the grounds of safety ffs.

    My reason is that
    a) It's hard to find a brake that'll not be annoying to have on the bars.
    b) I don't want to drill my forks.
    c) I don't want to scratch my rims.

    I am however thinking about getting TT-bars + a road-fork for my PlanetX, and a frontbrake + a wheel I don't care using a brake on.
