There is no doubt that the ability to stop is a key ingredient to safe riding. Last week a restaurant delivery cyclist pulled into traffic from between two parked cars (without looking) and I was immediately reminded that I need to tune my brakes. I did end up hitting him and without at least some semblance of brakes we both would have seen E.R. time for sure. With fully tuned brakes I just might have been able to stop in time.

Alex, AKA “The Bicycle Tutor” has appeared on our site before and now he brings you this great brake tutorial. Keep those brakes in shape!
