Nice to have the extra bite if you need it. Endo is a trick that I can't do. I do a pale imitation sometimes by accident where I nearly go face first into the pavement.
I remember once coming up to a junction near the Imperial War Museum and blasting towards it trying to make the green light, about 20 feet away I realised I wouldn't and slammed on the brakes - went about 30 feet on the front wheel, feathering the brake. Couldn't do that again if I tried for a million years.
