    cause i think with disc its more on or off. where as with drum once its warmed up you can easy it on an it feels much nicer with a drum brake for wheelies. but that's just my thought.

    drum rear for definate, if you wheelie and you're slightly low on fluid, you get air in your system, no back brake when wheelying=dead.

    drum is more reliable but people prefer disc because its beta init, luks wel gd wiv discs spinin raand

    exactly wrecked a perfectly good mint rox from doing this before just after a fresh respray aswell

    if disc was ALWAYS reliable disc all the way, drum are a little bit "fadey" and weeeeeeek at times but they always work when you need them
