I enjoyed so much this new trail of yours! But it really sucks when we're in the midle of a trail and something brakes...very cool watching you go with just one brake bro, despite the hardeness of the job, you didn't gave up and rode pretty damn well!!!
RideOn!

Thank you brother!
Going down steep with just a front brake is sooooooo scary!
I felt like I was going to fall so many times!
I spent all day today re-bleeding a new brake line, adjusting the bike and also finished building Hiro's bike too!
RideOn brother!

Another fantastic video mate.Bad luck about your brakes.I went for a wintery ride at 6am today.All the long grass was really wet and my front brake was screaming with anger and i laid off it as it was so load.I was all over the place with no front brake.Its amazing how we use the two together.
Thanks for sharing your video bro,I was thinking i had not seen one from you for a while.

Thank you mate!
I just started a new school year like your brother so, I have been very busy with work but, that should start to level out now!
We also spent the last 2 weekends building at Laputa and didnt get any quality ride time in!
I was astonished at how hard it was to DH with just a front brake!
Mate its scary!
But, I made it down and am all good now!
As for your brake was it wet that make is scream?
You might have got a little oil or grease on there?
I dont know but your right mate!
both brakes in correlation is necessary!
RidEOn mate!

As for my brake,there was so much dew in the long grass and the rotors was dripping wet.It was so loud hahaha,i woke the family up when i came down the hill.It was a bit "grabby" too but all good.

MMMMMM sounds like a dewy situation, ahhhahahahahha
I dont like noisy brakes but sometimes its the name of the game!
My Rune too was the same, very grabby and noisy so I just changed the pads and disk too yesterday as I was changing the brake line!

similar thing happened to me before, half an hour into a ride then the back brake goes, it was annoying, also very hard to control your bike with just a front brake i ended up just going straight over a berm instead of going round it!

hahahaahaahah
I felt the same way mate!
as you go into a corner with just the front brake you endup overshooting the section!
Very annoying but that was the fate of the day, ahhahahahhahaha
I too went back to the car while my lads went up for another DH run!
Cool thing about going home early, I was able to drive straight to the shop to pick up a rear cable.
All in all a good day despite the bad happenings!

NIce Edit Nick! just goes to show, our front brakes are our life savers, 65-85% of braking i do is on the front, but 100% excellent skills Captain Kirk!

Yo Dude, another killer vid in the books. Must of been a roller coaster ride.
On the positive side you get to buy some pimp brake hose. haha
Rock on!
