: In motocross and in jumping, the two-finger
: technique is the bread and butter way of
: operating the front brake and the clutch,
: enabling the rider to grip the bars with two
: fingers and the thumb, while simultaneously

: brake or clutch independent of hanging on

: curb bumps under hard acceleration or hard
: braking with an open hand, and you can't

: jackhammer on crack.
