Apparently the need to be able to stop isn't important... I would guess that somewhat makes the need for speed hard to satisfy..

Still, the aerodynamic advantage of a disc wheel should be easy to replicate using a standard rear wheel and some plastic sheets..

just plain stupid, there is no reason not to have a front brake on that bike, surely if he likes going fast he would being able to go faster by having more control.

I thought it was hilarious when I found him in the booklet that came with the Pedal DVD.

WTF is it with that booklet? Is it designed to catch all the hipsters craving another MASH SF style film? Think how disappointed they must all be when they find out it's actually a documentary! :)
