I have flown both the tail wheel and nose wheel gear on my KR-2 and by far the nose wheel is the most practical, due to the increased visibility and superior ground handling characteristics.

If you are using hydraulic brakes, this should not be a problem, because you will not have to apply that much pressure. I believe that the early KRs had a cable running between the calipers, through the cockpit, that you could grab and pull. I know of one Old Timer who flew his that way for many
