That is a bunch of BS, if you never practice braking late into a turn then you will never have that skill when needed in an emergency.
Example, you enter the turn at your non-braking speed, but out of no where car, animal, or debris is in the road causes you to have to get that sucker stopped under control whole redirecting the bike.
If you don't learn to do this under normal riding conditions you are most likely going to crash when you actually need to trail brake and redirect the bike at the same time.
Trail braking is all about hard entry into a turn while under hard braking. You either can or cannot do this.
So flame me if you want, but i will continue to trail brake into almost every turn.
