Yeah, like I said, I'm going to run two. I was just confused, as stated before, from all the pictures I had seen. I understand the physics aspect of it; hence the reason I assumed using a back brake would be more sufficient being that only using a front brake (with no coaster) in a quick stop would not stop the momentum of the rider.

Again, thanks so much guys. I'm glad 99% of you give me the information that I need.
