3.109 Front brake lever
The lever provided on the right hand side of the handle bar activates the front brake. It should be
used to support the rear brake, when slowing down. In conjunction with the rear brake, the front
brake is especially valuable on longer downhill rides due to the relocation of the center of gravity.
Using the front brake only occasionally bears the danger, that it will not function as well as it should
when it´s needed for emergency situations for instance.
