You will be fine.
One thing my mate who is an instructor told me. When you do the swerve test. It's easy to lock up the rear wheel. So just use light pressure on the rear pedal.
It shows you are using both brakes. But no chance of locking up and failing.
The front will be braking most anyway.
Using a more powerful bike actually makes it easier. As you can get up to speed quicker, then have more time to plan what you are doing. Some of the A2 bikes used actually make it harder.

Thanks for that aeroxbud, I’ll def put that in to practice with the swerve and hard stop 👍 |
