    • stealth :)microkorg
    • Why the no brakes? I never get that, besides being "cool". Nice, though, I miss the playing days.formed
    • No brakes: One less piece of equipment to maintain. Makes you commit to stuff & have better speed control. No need for a gyro when doing bars (which I don't do)soundofreason
    • Looking cool is the least of your worries when you're over forty and riding kids bikes!soundofreason
    • "why not brakes?" lol, do skateboards have brakes? It's not for the morning commute.fadein11
    • no*fadein11
    • Skateboards don't have breaks, but they go much slower, and if you have any skill, you can easily stop with a powerslide.section_014
    • BMX bikes minus brakes are generally used at skateparks/parks, you rarely see pro riders with brakes. With skill you can stop minus brakes on a BMX also.fadein11
    • Mostly street riders ride brakeless, park riders want brakes for fufanus, tyre taps & the such.soundofreason
    • too old for this... would kill myself in half a minute... Nice post for Sings you're getting oldOBBTKN
    • It doesn't take much skill to stop, you just jam your foot in the back like it was docpoz's mom.soundofreason
    • lol.fadein11
    • you are correct as well.fadein11
    • I get not having a front break if you want to do bar stuff, but c'mon, a single break isn't hard to maintain...feels like all the hipsters w their fixed bikes..formed
    • Fucking LOL. Have you ever seen a bike IRL? In your expert opinion where would you put the rear tyre break for bars, under the seat?soundofreason
    • Do you even shred, bro? I have to adjust my bars at least once a week due to the beating they take.
      Keep hatin'.

    • You seemed interested in the reasons why people rode brake-less and I gave you several of them. There's not much more I can do for you.soundofreason
