Re: Rear Brake

["Roger Downham" <r.downham@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Since it was me that started this thread I must say that I was taught to use
the rear brake when moving at under 10mph such as in heavy traffic or coming
up to a junction or doing U turns or slow control. Hence my question about
the effectiveness of the rear brake on the RS. How does everyone else carry
out these slow manoeuvres in control?
