In order to have fixed gear braking you need a beard and maybe a monocle

Pedal brakes were the shite. Haul arse and slam the brakes and power slide


I see someone gets it. I don't really prefer pedal brakes....but it was fun as hell as a kid.

Oh for sure, just not as an adult
Hydraulic disc > mechanical disc > rim

Best brakes were on mountain bikes. The modern handlebar/caliper brakes on them are unbelievable.
