Obviously it will depend on the conditions but that suggests a locked wheel will slow you down at what 80% efficiency. But not for long as you'll fall off.
Yeah but if it only does 80% of the friction you will end up going 20% faster so you do actually speed up when you lock the wheel.

See what I did there?Ill get me coat
