Foot brakes.
What do you guys think is harder, coming out of the saddle to lock everyhting up or being able to skid in the saddle? I found standing up and doing it was actually harder to learn.
Am I crazy? |

I actually thought of putting a coaster brake on a fixed gear.
And pegs. And a my little pony top tube protector. Then it would p.i.m.p. |
just jam your foot inbetween the seat stays and the tire and then you're ready to bombXskid

Because you didn't get the proprietary Trek coaster brake shoes! Trek dont sell internal parts for their coaster brakes,Here is their email to me Hi Mark, Thanks for writing and riding Trek bikes. On a hub like this, it's much easier and less expensive to purchase a new wheel than it would be to replace coaster brake shoes. If a cone is pitted, this could be replaced. Trek does not have part numbers for small items like this, but most bike shops will have a selection of replacement cones or access to distributors which have them available. Again, though, you may find it much more cost effective to replace the wheel rather than overhaul a hub like this. Ride on, Drew Axt | TREK Bicycle Corporation| drew_axt@trekbikes.com I ordered one from the web at 10.00 cheaper. |
if you ride barefoot, jamming your toes into your front spokes works really well.
|
Get a helmet,don't brake and hope for the best.

Someone needs to make a bike where you have to use a clutch to shift gears.
