Rear Brake Lock Ups

[royalstarjac]

If used properly 70% of the braking force should be applied at the front. Why do you think we have 2 rotors on the front and only 1 on the rear?-Jack

 

I should have qualified this by saying "in a straight line panic stop".

At slow parking lot speeds I usually use only my rear brake,especially if my front wheel is turned.-Jack

The reason I asked how many use there front brakes is because, ever since I put the lifsaver tcb on I very seldom even touch my rear brakes. The control is amazing. I believe in my front brakes 110%. I trust my front brake so much I havent put the lifesavr on the rear yet.

Riding in the northwest your going to have some wet days and I've found the rear to lock up very easily in wet conditions, never down but have been close.

You can use your front brake in a slow turn but you have to have a light touch and I mean light but it widens your turn in slow stuff. Thats one reason I dont like linked brakes. I want the control over which gets activated not the bike but I like ABS or maybe Zachs product sounds interesting and I might try it.
