My stokers controls the drum brake for 2 reasons:
  • She trust me with her life 99% of the time when we ride. Why should I not trust her for that 1% of the time?
  • I don't finess the drag brake. We use only 3 settings with the drag brake: light, medium or full. Finessing is done using the rim brakes which I control upfront because I can see what's coming.
