  1. well i may not know much about bikes but; its obvious physics that if you only had rear brakes you would probably not be able to do a stoppie. the front brakes provide about 70% of the stopping power, so if you could get a bigger rear disc or double up and bring that ratio down to about 60/40 then you wont lift the rear as soon. lifting the rear happens when the weight of the rear overcomes opposing G forces and with the help of the front brake creating its own center of gravity so to speak the reason they dont let the rear do most of the braking is because weight gets transferred to the front during braking and the rear would lock up so in the end all my logic may be wrong... would have to talk to some pros i dont believe in luck but yes you were very fortunate
