Hand Operated Brakes
WARNING!
If the front brake is applied too quickly or too hard, the front
wheel can stop turning resulting in a front pitch over or cause
the bicycle to lose steering function leading to a crash.
Hand operated brakes have a separate hand lever to operate
front and rear brakes. Front hand brake levers are located on
the left side of the handlebar, and rear hand brake levers are
located on the right side of the handlebar. Figure 5.2
Hand operated brakes may be used alone or on some models in
conjunction with foot operated brakes. It is OK to operate one
brake at a time, or all together, depending on your style,
comfort, and riding conditions. However, be careful to pay close
attention to front brakes locking up.
