CA law says a bike must be equiped with a brake that can cause a skid on dry even pavement. I can lock the rear wheel on my FG and skid. With out shoving my foot in the tire, in the spokes, etc. This is repeatable. Thus, my FG has a brake.
This is my interpratatatatation. Yours, as well as others, may vary.
