Re: [ST] Counter Rotating Brakes

["Chris Harwood" <Chris@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

For racing I would have thought that a system that stores energy in a flywheel and feeds it back into the front wheel as you exit the corner might be more useful.  I'll leave others to determine which way the flywheel should rotate <G>

The only headshake I've had was when I changed up on an uneven surface and that may have been because I was grabbing the bars too hard (I was on full throttle).

I never had anything near headshake, except on some bikes when taking
the hands of at certain speeds. I think this technology could be of
huge advantage to racers, taking away another limit in handling. But
for us mortal souls it doesn't matter at all I think, except that it
will make steering at 100mph almost as light as it does at 20 mph (or so).
