Use of Rear Brake. - Page 2

cbutteris · 07-31-2011, 04:51 PM

I always use both brakes but am trying to develop a better habit of getting more progressive on the front like Greg mentioned.

Like the tar strips TC mentioned, I really watch for those crack repairs made with tar. They are always greasy on a warm day.

My other big annoyance are those big white blocks of paint in the crosswalks when you are making a turn. I always try to ride between them even when dry.

ABS will be on my 'needs' list should I have the opportunity to shop for another ride.
