Most of the braking (stopping power) is obtained from the front wheels, not the back...especially for bicycles.

disc brakes are a more expensive form of brakes and so are used on the back as it is the front brakes that need to have the highest braking force. This is because as a car brakes most the weight of the car acts on the front wheels of the car.
