I watched (and listened) and I wondered at first when he spun the handelbars "no front brakes?!" then I saw the front disc.. so yeah, brakes. I guess he spins it enough to wrap the cables all the way around the head stock, then on the next jump, spins the handlebars all the way around in the other direction, unwinding them. I guess. looks cool, looks scary, I could have as much fun as him at 1/10 the velocity on the same trail.

You could do that as you described or use a detangler like on a freestyle bike. The front brake is actually easier because you can route through the stem with the right hardware. The stuff I've seen was for cable actuated brakes, hydraulic would need a similar but different system.

Carbondale, PA
Coming back from this ride we were looking for a diner when we saw a ton of smoke pouring up around the bend. We immediately though fireman bbq chicken! The truth was more ridiculous and sadly un-photographed. A Dodge Charger was apparently setting the donut burnout world record. Round and round she went and naturally she had a General Lee paint job. My partners in crime are from rural NY so we have a lot of back and forth about which place is more backwards. I won.

I should mention we had a great 2 and a quarter hour ride. Our home area is roots, rocks, and mud. Merli-Sarnoski Park is mostly rocks, rocks, and rocks.
