When going at a high speed, breaking hard with the front wheel alone can force the bike to rotate around it and the rider might enjoy a very short but very thrilling flight. Which I learned the hard way many years ago


You can wrench on the front brake at speed, you just can’t do it from the saddle. Gotta move your center of mass back and down.
