I just purchased my first new track bike(2005 Bianchi Pista with clipless pedals). It has a flip-flop rear hub. I put on a front dual pivot brake(the rear brake bridge is not drilled to accept a rear brake). One side of the rear wheel is fixed with a 13t cog w/lockring. The other side has a 15t AC Racing single speed freewheel.

In order to attempt to stop my bike without the use of my brake, I tried resting my shoe bottom on my rear tire jamming it into my seat stays. I slowed down significantly but certainly not as well as when I apply my brake or if I bunny hop the rear wheel while in 'fixed' mode.

How do I perform an emergency stop if my front brake cable snaps and I'm in 'freewheel' mode?

Thanks,

Ben
