This is the perfect brake system. Why do rimjobs or mech dicks even exist when picrel exists?
I swear it feels like it's just one extremely autistic person trolling every board. It's the exact same formula.
>>2074958Up to about a year ago the dickbreak vs rim arguing seemed organic but there's a recognizably argumentative anon who seems to create the majority of the shitposts on this topic nowadays. I've seen them on a few other boards, their signature is something like>it is literally impossible to blahblahblah(blahblahblah being any number of things the possibility of which is not in dispute)
>>2074960>>it is literally impossible to blahblahblah>(blahblahblah being any number of things the possibility of which is not in dispute)Like what?
>>2074962Get fucked
>>2074962Some examples I dug up from the /n/ archives, but I know I've seen it on other boards, just can't remember where offhand>>2074638>>2063763>>2071434
>>2074960>>2074964Use case for saying "it is literally impossible to blahblahblah"?
what poverty does to a mf KWABXD
>>2074966There he is. The incredible retard.
gentelmen
>>2074957Coaster brake really is all you (((need))) but it's flawed, the heat generated from braking melts the grease in the bearings so hard riding requires frequent service or the bearings will fail
>loses chain going downhill because you were pedalmaxxing too hard (as one does)>"oops guess you can't brake anymore during the single moment you need to brake the most"I've unironically had this happen to me but luckily I had enough distance to safely slow down with my feet like a fixie. Never again dawg. Get a proper brake
>>2074958sadly i don't think it's just a feeling
>>2074984Just use a Gates Belt.
>>2074960He's doing it again here >>2075012
>>2074957Pair it with wireless electronics and it would be perfect.
>>2074984How bout powerful magnets keeping the breaks open constantly and if the chain breaks, they close.
>>2076814You would need AI to monitor that and then where would you keep all the water to?
>>2076850Its how emergency brakes work on tractor trailers. Current holds them open.
>>2076859>this fucking cagebraine'd
>>2076859>>2076814Where am I going to fit such a huge battery on my fucking bicycle? It's not a moped with an alternator you retarded non
>>2074983Use stiffer grease than multipurpose in the brake end.
>gets hot >boils all the grease out of the bearing >wheel seizes
I commute to work on my bike and the bike lanes are completely packed during rush hour. Because of all these random idiots everywhere, doing random things randomly, I often need to brake hard without much warning. Especially retarded tourists on those orange "rent-a-bikes"... you never know what they're gonna do.Hand brakes facilitate a significantly faster reaction time than having to fiddle around with the pedals. Also, obviously, the front brake provides most of the stopping power.
