A brake that stops the handlebars from turning.

A brake that stops the handle bars from turning, in order to make front wheel stands easier, and to widen the range of tricks that can be performed on the front wheel.

The most suitable place for the Stunt Brake lever would probably be in front of the existing front brake lever. That way, the front brake could be operated as per normal, however by reaching slightly further the rider could gather the Stunt Brake lever and pull both levers simultaneously.

I would think that some sort of band brake operating on the headset would be a reasonable mechanical means of locking the handlebars.
