I say yes, for all of the reasons above. The rear braided hose takes more getting used to than the front as there is less feel through your boots than your gloves. Easy to lock the wheel. But once you get to grips with it - BOO-YA!!! Stopping power that makes you have to hold on like never before. Also, it helps stabilise the bike in bends, with real feedback from the rear wheel (unlike the rubber sponge). I would say I use the rear more like 30% than 10%. What about the rest of you?

Not quite sure what to do with my early mid-life crisis. Ideas on a post card to P.O.BOX 150...
