Smash the cistern
When I was a kid I had a BMX with a coaster brake. That thing was the best at skids. Lean right over to one side and just stamp on the pedal.Skids is wicked.

Did you not get into the brake, skid, release to one side, then the other going downhill, bit like slaloming on skis.When I was a kid I had a BMX with a coaster brake. That thing was the best at skids. Lean right over to one side and just stamp on the pedal.
I don't think so.Guess we all agree to disagree, then.
Isn't that illegal?I only have one brake on a fixie. On other bikes, I use both.
Ex motorcyclist?I cannot remember the last time I thought about braking, it just happens.

You're far too sensible, go stand in the corner, they don't want answers like thatI’m surprised that there is so much variance and rigidity in the way people brake. One rule cannot fit all riding. Speed, surface, weight distribution, lean angle, incline, weather etc all make a difference to how you use your brakes.
Not on a fixie in UK law (1983 construction and use regs). A front brake only is sufficient if the rear wheel cannot rotate independently of the pedals.Isn't that illegal?
