If you learned how to tuck properly that wouldn't happen.
Also, thats a damn fine bike you got there.

I've rode brake less plenty of times, until a damn tree jumped in front of me. My old Haro was brake less for as long as I can remeber, but after I got my Federal with brakes, I'm not turning back. I hate my seat any lower than that, I'm pretty tall so it never hits me when I bunny hop.
EDIT: When I said "I won't ride brake less", I meant I'm still buying brakes. There's no way I'd let it sit here just because it doesn't have brakes without riding it.

Haha. The tree jumped in your way? Hmm... so we have a case of BMX meets Lord of The Rings. Interesting. I'm not a big fan of brakes.
WTP: It's before I even get anywhere near to tucking. I just prefer to have my seat low.
