If you find a gyro that will fit on 75-76 motobecane Im all ears. I mentioned earlier maybe that I tried this, it worked but the pull strength wasn't enough to stop on a dime, or at least in a acceptable amount. I think Im gonna make my life easier and just use a secondary rear brake. Or buy that 50 dollar little brake gadget...


Also AltheCyclist I am left handed but thats a moot point, I might just do what you say. As I was playing the other day I tend to hop around and when I do I have both hands on the bars. It would be easier to pull a tail whip to turn around quicker if I had a front brake to steady myself..
