Thank fuck I swapped back because my brake cable snapped a week later when a smart car pulled out on me. I've also had my front brake cable snap on me when emergency stopping (to avoid some drunken hipsters in camberwell running across the main road).. +1 to having a break cable snap you need some redundancy on braking mechanisms, so a 2nd one is essential
