Man maybe it’s because I’ve gotten one bike ride in over the past month, but I have the urge to klunk.

I will admit, landing a jump on a rigid after only riding my FS felt like a crash landing.
Was fun tho, and I’ll be doing it again soon. Forgot how much fun but also a butt kicker SS is.

Did someone say klunker???
(I need some new glamor shots since my local frame builder added a boss for the actuation arm)
(also I know this is way too nice and hi tech but a Performance Coaster Cruiser is just a lot of fun okay)

How hard is it to out shred your ability to stop?
Well. Modulation definitely takes some practice. And I don’t run a front brake so it’s pretty easy to skid out, even with a 3” tire. So like I said on my blog last year, it makes sense to run a coaster brake on a bike that you feel really comfortable cornering on. This Stooge MK4 handles really really well, and I feel super comfortable on it. So it’s a lot of fun.
I’ve taken it down some steeps, but the steeps in Michigan are sandy ORV trails, so it’s not like modulating down a Pacific Northwest loamer. That being said Cjell Mone did the AZT and folks ride some wild stuff with coaster brakes. If you’ve got a handful of bikes I really suggest building one up.

Coaster brakes are cool. But maybe not for everyone.

I did! Put a coaster brake on a bike you feel really comfortable turning at speed on.
