Re: Handbrake on top or bottom of clutch???

hb definately on the bottom. I don't know why anyone would want it on the top. just doesn't make any sense does anyone know a advantage to it on the top.

Re: Handbrake on top or bottom of clutch???

i hear it's good for off peg coasters but they switch it in to so they can brake with index and clutch with the middle finger

Re: Handbrake on top or bottom of clutch???

ive alwayz used the h/b on top... i tried the other way once for a week or so and i couldent ride for shit, i really need the clutch on bottom cause i use it alot saving circles n shit

i like h/b on top but now its impossable doing anything involving the clutch.. i cant use both for shit. also trying one handed circles is a bitch cause when i mess up and need to pull clutch my hand hits the h/b first!

Re: Handbrake on top or bottom of clutch???

bottom just seems more logical to me.... meaning having the handbrake below the clutch
