Can Disk Brakes flip you over the handle bars?

Yes, if you don't brace yourself and are unfamiliar with the brake and grab wildly, any powerful brake can be dangerous--but so can many things in life. Well adjusted brakes should be easy to modulate, provided you're not inebriated and have practiced a few panic stops, and shouldn't necessitate the purchase of a new bicycle. Be careful when posting questions like this, because you may attract 'bent riders, who are bearded hammers in search of nails--sometimes with orange flippy flags! Since so many upright riders feel necessary to comment on the alleged disadvantages of recumbents (often quite rudely in person), it is only fair to do the same for uprights. -- Tom Sherman - Holstein-Friesland Bovinia The weather is here, wish you were beautiful |
