The Ultimate Brakeless/Front/Rear/How many brakes? thread

as in a dual pull calliper break,

4) front break only, on a ss.
6) rear break only, on a ss.
7) front break only, on a fixie.

I did not include single pull calliper breaks as they are pretty rubbish. Thats just a quick calculation I did at work. (I am a Engineer/Physicist)

I am sure there is other opinions out there, but they will most likely be subjective. Not that mine is a gold standard or anything! Just my informed opinion.

It's 'brake'.

And doesn't have much to do with how people really ride bikes IMO. It gives zero consideration to control.
