Exactly what I was thinking. To get the front end down when doing a wheelie, you use the rear brake. I'm no physicist, but I guess the bike's forward momentum translates into a turning force at the rear when the rear brake is applied. I would imagine hard braking on the front has a much stronger effect in this regard, but then you have the weight of the whole bike, plus the forward momentum loading it. So it's about degree of control, comparing the two?
