    Good points, thanks all for the input. I’ll practice a little more at low speeds/ quiet areas and look into a front brake.

    I’ll be bimbling about on it mostly. Plan on using it for very leisurely singletrack/flat stuff, no traffic etc.

    Just really interested in how different it feels to ride from my normal stuff.

    Gpwm about a safety backup.

    Ordered pedal straps and grips and a better chain. Just trying to get repro graphics for frame now.

    Agree on pedal straps, had to find some gravel to test out locking the back up and still struggled, can’t grip both pedals enough without.

    Got grips and bar ends on order.

    Really want to learn to use it without brakes from day one if possible too. Do many people run these brakeless or not?

    Still figuring out how to ride it so far. Realised i will definitely need pedal straps!

    :D

    Here's some more.

    The yellow bike was a challenge to make one of the cheapest, lowest quality frames ever made look cool and be fun in some way.
