Dam fool idea. I just pray we don't wake up to find this required by law on all bikes.

Campag shifters? Either way, daft bloody idea.

It is incredibly difficult to get the front wheel of a bike to lock up IME.

Suntour shifters actually.

Front wheel lock is an excellent tool in the proper hands.

Do you have the finger strength of a toddler?

Happens a few times every ride for me.

basicly a short length of outer replaced with a rubber bumper to stop your brakes feeling as they should

i had a "power modulator" on an old Giant boulder of mine.

it was rubbish.

Hmmm. I find the correct amount of front to rear balance varies with where my weight is on the bike, if I'm going down a slope, if I want to let the front end track rather than brake or simply if I forgot to brake enough before the turn. Of course I may just be mad.

I won't be buying - of course nor will anyone else on here.
