Hi All,
I've only just joined your forum as a result of searching for advice on the safe ways of cycling with the use of only one arm. I appologise if I am in the wrong thread but 'Know How' seemed appropriate.
It is 40 years since I last rode a cycle but am gaining confidence on my lady wife's folding bike. Brakes seem to be the big issue and I am investigating two different approaches:
Any thoughts would be listened to avidely.

It is 40 years since I last rode a cycle but am gaining confidence on my lady wife's folding bike. Brakes seem to be the big issue and I am investigating two different approaches:
- find a safe way of using one hydraulic brake lever to operate both front and rear brakes or;
- stick to normal front braking system and have a back-pedal hub brake installed on the rear wheel.
Any thoughts would be listened to avidely.
