[python] Re: rear brake

In the two wheel version of my python, I have a rear brake.  I too find it a
bit of a problem.  I just have to remember to apply less force to it.  I
have only a front brake on the tri version.  I have interchangeable rear
ends for mine and with only two bolts can go from a bike to a trike.

Subject: [python] rear brake

Hi Listies,

A few weeks ago I installed a second brake on my bike - a rear brake (up 
to that point I only rode with 1 (front) brake). Unfortunately, since 
the weight is so low on the rear wheel, I have had it locking up several 
times now, and last weekend on a longer tour, I even fell of the bike 
because of it. I find the rear brake positively dangerous, but still I 
would like to have a second brake in case the front cable breaks.

I am considering what to do, up to now I came up with cutting the brake 
handle shorter, so I wouldn't be able to apply any force. Maybe other 
riders have better ideas?

Dirk
