Does anyone use the rear brake while trail braking? Or, more accurately, does anyone successfully go faster/not crash while using the rear brake while trail braking? I'm not at that skill level, yet, but that is something I've been thinking about...

Robert -

I've started using the rear brake more and more this year. It's a fantastic tool mid corner and at exit when the bike is running wide. I have a lot more work to do to be more proficient with it, but for sure I'm using it these days.

Great read, gotta start practicing more and more.
