Braking in Corners: the 2-1-NONE Method for Speed and Control


Listen Later

MTB skills coaches have worked out the 2-1-0 Method for braking into corners. You start by doing heavy confidence braking with both brakes followed by just the rear brake and finishing with no brakes. Today Rohan and Matt discuss what confidence braking and cornering means, where and why the 2-1-none Method can help you gain and maintain control, and where in the corner you should be braking to get the most exit speed. We compare this to what might happen if you brake too early or too late.
