I had a Schwinn Heavy Duty back in the early 70's that was set up with a front drum brake, my dad insisted that the rear coaster brake wasn't enough. Worst part was I had to pay for it, best part...he was right! I broke a chain one day when on a downhill fully loaded, the drum brake saved the day! I have preferred them ever since.<br /><br />Aaron2whls3spdshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16954543886269776858noreply@blogger.com
