>>1365609yea priddy much if I'm in an urban setting
unless the brakes are hydraulic
on some bikes the levers are such that your fingers would get in the way of the levers full travel
>>1365649>brake from the dropsI find it easier to brake from the drops than the hoods
with shimano BR-5500 only two fingers are needed
and the tires are so thin that their is no need to bottom out the levers
>1s of reaction time is too muchits possible to switch from bull horn bar ends (if they are short and the angle is low) to apply brakes on a flat bar
but yea its not ideal
>>1365762>go over the barsthat's not a big deal
try practicing front wheel skids
>>1365757on the old motorcycles with no abs
they used to instruct to apply the rear brakes first in order to stabilize the bike and preload the front wheel
