[QUOTE="FJRottie, post: 11828, member: 526"] The front brake is sufficient for most scenarios. Like others have said, you may need the rear for very slow riding, and certain cornering issues (i.e. less traction, loss of traction) to prevent a highside. It would ne nice to have a spare bike to practice ripping through or sliding through corners. I did that on junk bikes when I was young to learn the machine. I only use the rear brake without the front, in stop and go slow traffic. [/QUOTE]
