larrybailey~ Posted August 20, 2008 Report Share Posted August 20, 2008 Hello guys,Just something i thought you may find interesting, my avid bb7 broke sometime last week and while iv been waiting for my new one to arrive i have been riding without my front brake took the whole thing off lever, disc, calipper, cable the lot! And iv found that not having a front brake has really helped me work on my backwheel control and iv even been able to side hop well over handle bar height to two wheels and it has also improved my front wheel taps. Even though its been a good experience i cant wait to get my front brake back! Think its well worth a go sometime even if you only try it for one ride.Hope you find this interesting!Cheers Lawrence.
