Ok so I'm a newb to riding (about 2 mos). Well I laid my bike down 2 wks ago due to locking the rear wheel. So my dad who rode all of his childhood and now again told me not to ever really use the rear brake and that all he uses is the front brake. And since getting back on the bike I have to admit I'm pretty hesitant to use the rear brake.
My question is when to use the front brake and when to use the rear brake? I had been using the rear brake before curves to knock a little speed off then letting off of it before entering. And also using the rear brake to start the slowing down process then using the front brake to really stop. Now after my accident I catch myself just using the front brake for most everything.
What should I do? Thanks guys.
