How can you regain control if your rear tire locks up?
To regain control of a locked rear wheel, the brake must be released. However, if you accidentally lock the rear brake on a good traction surface, you can keep it locked until you have completely stopped.
- Release the rear brake.
- Continue using the rear brake.
- Swerve the bike in the direction with the fewest hazards.
- With the brake engaged, try to accelerate.
