Trying to nip this one in the bud before something bad happens. A few times as a late Ive been coming to a stop and I've been finding my back tire doing a little bit of unexpected sliding after applying the back brake after/before down shifting. Bad technique aside (Im pretty sure both brakes would be a bit preferable from what Im gathering), somewhere in the back of my brain, Im pretty sure that I'm suppose to stay on the brake as I'm sliding but I keep letting off and giving it a bit of gas and it straightens out. Mind you this is happening at lower speeds (speed limit if not close to it), usually in town and usually in reaction to a late decision to the light.

I am right this is wrong? Shouldnt I be staying on the brake to a complete stop otherwise I could catch and flip right?

Thanks (:sigh: even for the flames )
