i guess if you keep it under 25mph you will be fine or on deserted country road you might gamble at 45ProSimex said:why do you say no way to stop, that rear brake is totally functional, the front one will help. There are things I dont care for about this bike, but its general safety isnt one of them. I you ride a rigid, drum braked bike like a rigid drum braked bike, not a three disk sportbike, your fine. Ride it for what it is.
