The rear brake instills a bit of feer in me. Won't it just lever out the screw on braze ons if you jam the brakes on ?
I do admire your ability to bodge though...

Love it to bits but wouldn't go anywhere near a downhill gradient with those brakes
Did you get your moniker from a certain Simspons episode & japanese washing powder advert?

even the dog looks worried and he's not riding it

I dunno what you lot are worried about with the brakes - everyone knows that the front brake is more effective on a bike than the back one so as long as some braking power is present at the back (just to stop it snaking) it'll be fine

I suspect that 'snaking under braking' might come in at about number 17 on the list of undesirable handling attributes. Behind 'crumpling when jumping', 'gurning while turning' and if you were ever daft enough to race it, 'snapping when lapping'

Good effort. Please can i be a long way away whenever you ride it.

safety is my other watchword!

A tip of the glass to you! You have unleashed a beast from hell and are unafraid to straddle it!
