Granted, i just got it myself. I had not felt it, thouhgt my brother feels his often (not sure what ihe is doing wrong). IT does work quite well and in my experience, just like a call (though the "pulse" felt is a bit harsher than in my car). I tested it by crushing the rear brake. I figured if it did not work, a rear wheel skid is less risky and easier to control than a front wheel skid ( and likely tuck). Try out on the rear and then move on to the front.
