Why do keep moving forward when you slam on the brakes on your bicycle?

Because when you brake, the brakes stop the wheels from moving. But that doesn't stop the bike from moving. It means that the speed/force/velocity at which you were traveling was forceful enough to override the brakes. So basically, you're sliding.

Do brakes mess up your bmx bike?

If you're talking about looks then it's all about personal taste, and IMO brakes are so darn useful that I'd keep them on no matter what. If you intend to ride in traffic they're required to make your bike legal anyhow. Structurally your bike is fine with them.


When you ride a bicycle at full speed and the bike stops why do you have to push hard on the handlebars to keep from flying forward?

It's called inertia, or conservation of energy. Basically it means that an object that is moving likes to keep moving, and that an object at rest likes to remain at rest. When you're on the bike you are that moving object that would like to remain moving, so to resist that force you have to brace your arms against the bars. The bike willthen transfer that force through the for and wheel and into the ground.
