"Yes, I agree with you that the mechanical type would allow for a more gradual application of braking power, something I doubt could  be done with a wireless device one holds in his hand. But the leash system just looks cumbersome and…"

"Yeah, idunno. For one, brakes that slow down the front wheels seem like a bad idea to me. (Used on a 5 wheel frame, I'm sure you could put leave the front wheel free, but I would assume you could figure a way to just put this on the back 2…"
