Dr Mental is clearly arrogant, however given his assumption (however poor they may be) he is correct. Some of you don't agree with his assumptions to do with fixed wheel braking which is fine and you would get different results. I don't agree with his ordering of fixed + front brake being slower to stop that rear disk only e.t.c. However then there are others are coming up with situations involving bunny hopping things e.t.c when all he is on about is slowing down. He is not on about different ways to avoid accidents he is on a bout stopping, effective braking systems not how to avoid an accident. This is unfair abuse towards him. I understand that his listing qualifications is very antagonistic so he deserves shovel full of internet punishment.
Teaching and R&D are not the same thing. Your this comment shows you know fuck all about both. This is the first comment I've read on this forum that has got me truly angry. Fucking gobshite.
