When you brake on a bike which trigger do you pull first?
If road conditions are good and you need to brake hard, then you use the front brake, which is the "strongest". If road conditions are poor you might want to give the front brake a rest and rely on the rear brake, as a rear skid is far more manageable than a front wheel skid. If conditions are average and you only want to slow down a bit it doesn't really matter.

Rim brakes are lighter and more aerodynamic, but disc brakes offer better stopping power and performance in wet conditions. The type of brake lever you choose can impact your road bike's overall performance by affecting braking power, modulation, and maintenance requirements.
Which brakes do you take off a bmx bike?
You don't have to take any brake off at all. Particularly if you intend to ride it on the road and in traffic I strongly suggest you leave them both in place. On full-sized bikes the front brake is the strongest, but with the short wheel base of a BMX, it might make more sense to leave the rear brake in place, if you think you have to pull one off.

How can you get brake fluid to rear brakes on your mini?
The brake fluid reservoir will be located toward the back of the engine bay on the driver's side, up high where it's easy to access. Once you locate the brake fluid reservoir, you will see markings on the side that tell you if you need to add any brake fluid. You may need to clean off a little road grime to see the marks clearly.
