ok, just a quick question...front or rear or both?
when the time comes to upgrade, i'll go to the avid mechs. i was just wondering which to switch out first- the front or rear? having read some threads in here, it looks as though people seem to upgrade their front to disk when the time comes.
the question is based on the fact that on occasion when i am riding the brakes, it is always concentrated with the rear with the front pulsing for additional slowing power. i understand that the front actually does more work as the weight shifts forward. maybe i avoid it to avoid endoing, i suppose.
is my technique weak, or did i get the wrong impression from misc. posts?
another factor is the ease of removal of the front wheel (bike fits in car, so this is done 2x per ride). are disks as easily released?
thanks in advance.
