I've decided yes for a brake but am chicken about the handle. Since I
don't have an opportunity to try other people's unis to decide what I
want before I buy, I can only read about and imagine what it would be
like.Were none of you concerned about the handle bars contrubuting to injury
in a UPD? I mean the beauty of my 29 with no handle and no gears is
that I can go as fast as my legs will pedal, and if I happen to UPD I
can still fall of the front with very little risk. 1. because it is
not geared so I can't go really fast anyway and 2. because there is
nothing.. handle etc to stop me from running it out or hopping off.
Despite the sharp corners on the T7 handle it is surprisingly hard to
catch yourself on them during a UPD. The only time I remember really
getting the handle in the leg was during a failed attempt to rolling
hop a log across the trail. I can't complain to much though, it is a
touring handle, not a MUni handle🙂
I really like the handle for on the road though, It really helps
stabilize my ride and basically eliminates wobble
