Whenever I squeeze the left brake handle really hard, I end up getting ejected over the handlebars. Can someone please explain to me why?? :confused:

Because the brakes are backwards. The right brake should work the front like a motorcycle.
I want to know why I have to pedal my mountain bike. Don't we have enough technology to have self-propelled transportation? :rolleyes:
