When you brake on a bike which trigger do you pull first?
If road conditions are good and you need to brake hard, then you use the front brake, which is the "strongest". If road conditions are poor you might want to give the front brake a rest and rely on the rear brake, as a rear skid is far more manageable than a front wheel skid. If conditions are average and you only want to slow down a bit it doesn't really matter.

Which brakes do you take off a bmx bike?
You don't have to take any brake off at all. Particularly if you intend to ride it on the road and in traffic I strongly suggest you leave them both in place. On full-sized bikes the front brake is the strongest, but with the short wheel base of a BMX, it might make more sense to leave the rear brake in place, if you think you have to pull one off.
