  • Thanks hartxander, i appreciate that. Let me first check at home if my housemates have some spares i could borrow for the time being. I think i didn't realize how important it is and how mamy voices it will raise. You brainwashed me.

    I've said it before and I'll say it again, riding freewheel one-brake is no more or less stupid than riding fixed gear no brakes. And no-one gets their panties in a bunch over the brakeless crew.

    I'm not saying it's the smartest decision in the world - it's much better to have two ways of stopping than only one - but the chances of your brake failing are minimal, and the hissy fits being thrown here are more to do with cultural conditioning than a serious appreciation for the risk.
