Mechanical perfection.Why do coastercucks, rimjobs, or mech dicks exist when you could have picrel?
I can see this sending you over the bars if you get a flat.
Why not make an "esoteric brakes general" or something
>>2077746I think this is pretty much guaranteed to happen since the brake is designed to dig into your tires and fuck them up
>>2077747Because the guy making these threads is a troll and has absolutely no life and I don't understand why you fucking morons keep feeding him
>>2077745>Mechanical perfectionWRONG
>>2077751unironically yes.
>>2077745>ruins your $100 Grand Prix 5000 tire after slowing down once
>>2077749OP herefor the record, I'm not the guy who made the original thread about band brakes. I simply copy+pasted his thread with a different premise because I think it's funny
>>2077994>OP here

>>2077745why not just have a metal beam that goes through the rim when you press the break? that way you have maximum braking stopping power whenever you hit the brakes, the wheel literally stops in a millisecond and brings you to a complete halt
>>2078077>brings you to a complete haltOnly part of that not true. The bike comes to a complete halt. You carry on without it.
>>2078078Install a seat belt so you stay with your bike, there problem solved, and while we're at it you might at well put the bike in an enclosure to keep you out of the sun, also single track vehicles tend to be less stable than 4-wheels so you might as well add an extra 2 wheels for stability, oh and while we're at it you can add an engine, gonna need all the help you can get with all that extra weight. There, now it's perfect. It's like a carriage but without the horse, or a "car" if you will.
>>2077748But the ground itself digs into your tires when you stop the wheel rotating with any other style of brake anyway.
>>2078620you aren't actually meant to skid your tires when you brake anon, if that's happening then it means you're braking way too aggressively
