rotafix'ing is something people should definetely learn to do. Its a great way to get a cog on in a jam. Probobably one of the best ways to remove a cog too, just reverse the direction of the chain rap. Just make sure that you put a thick rag or something around your BB to prevent the chain from diggin into the shell. I would be confident in putting slow back pressure on a rotafixa's cog, but you will eventually need to skid, and it won't stay on for that strong of an torque. Thats why I would never fully trust just a rotafixa'd cog.
