This has been bugging me for awhile!, I have been watching a few You Tube clips of DJ's, I was wondering how they bar spins with brakes? is there a giro or what?
Yeah. You can also get different Length cords for your brakes and gears so if yours isnt long enough you could always just replace it with a new longer one
yup i use the front brake through the Headset and the back & gears longer.
Started using this on the Reign when i was learning and then on the STP.
You can get a bolt with a hole for the headset for around $35 bucks. The only issue is that if you need to retighten the bolt you have to bleed the front. Although there are better bolts that can be tightened from the outside without doing this.
The photos should give you the idea. Sorry abouyt the quality thats all i have. Dont worry about the snake they are optional
well downside of hydraulic brakes are that the levers aren't very hand friendly when you miss the grip and grab the lever. I've shredded my hand many a times doing this. Just go a good mechanical brake like a BB5 with an Odyssey Linear Slic cable and a BMX brake lever like a Odyssey Monolever or Colony Transformer. Set it up right the first time and never touch it again. Much cheaper to replace broken parts over hydraulic ones too. $70 Hose sounds good to me or a $15 cable.
