    Have you ever thought of adding training wheels with suspension to the back of your bike? So that if you 12 o'clock it, it stays up?

    Without suspension it wouldn't absorb the impact if you went up too fast so the back end would bounce and lose control straight away ?

    Pretty sure they are like hydrologic rods that push back like a shock absorber

    That should work. Be nicer if it had wheels though, just shitty trolley wheels would do it, to stop it from jumping or getting caught.

    a block of nylon would work best,
    then it would slide.

    Is that like a computer made out of water?

    I reckon we go with the simple option here. Put an extra caliper on the rear rotor (underslung), and hook its master up to a mechanical gyro. Gyro stays level, bike goes to far back, bam, back brake comes on. Various lever ratios would give different rotational correction velocites, so no problems there. The rotational correction velocity would also be proportional to the unintended pre-correction velocity, thus promoting learning
    Might have to run the gyro with an air turbine, but could add an air compressor on there too. Much simpler than a precision bar out the back with wheels!

    Just practise on a treadmill. No way you could get hurt or wreck your bike.
