Re: finally gettin the back wheel up

Just a bit of advice to all of you who are tightening the front brake for extra stoppie power, make sure the front wheel still turns with the brake off. It's easy to do, I know a few times I have tightned the crap out of my front and had the brake still rub so I had to back off a notch. Perhaps I am merely pointing out the obvious, but its worth thinking about. Wheel drag equals lower speed, more rolling resistance and premature brake wear. Have fun!!!!
