Assumeing you can actually get your Spree up to 40 mph, pulling the front brake at that speed is going to do nothing but make you smack your face on the ground, very hard.
Comeing soon: Possibly the fastest Spree in the world...

since when were spree brakes strong enough to do a stoppie??? I've tried this many times and my brakes are not nearly strong enough to lock the front wheel or perform a stoppie.

I am not a mechanic, nor do I play one on TV. Actually my advice is probably worth slightly less than what you pay to view it.
