He did well. Is there a link to his work?

I think its AUD $649 Frame and fork, but equally could just be $....
Nice though.

Is a SSCX with a front disc brake only asking for trouble? Or is that workable?

@IR 's new build, with a ( hopefully ) temporary paint scheme....

Really not that bad a paint job... in the photo, at least! What's the frame?

Little trouble when braking into a corner

The famous bike destroyer has started to balance things out, by building his own frame at The Bicycle Academy :-)

No rear brake? Two brakes are good for modulation

oof, that's lovely.

IMHO it would be shit on tricky terrain. In fact I'd probably prefer rear only for racing.

Hm. My pals are constantly on at me to give CX a go. Don't have money or space for a proper cross bike so I'd take my town/winter bike, switch out the fork and front wheel and have something like this

Is there a type of rear brake I could fit that wouldn't get clogged up on that frame?

No

There are clamp-on plates for keirin bikes. You could use one of those maybe with a longdrop caliper brake?

The small detail about that setup is that it's a fixed SSCX.

Interesting, I'll look into that, thanks.

Didn't look clearly enough at the rear wheel. Don't think I'd be game for FGCX :(

Understandable - but rather flat courses can be awesome on fixed

A coaster brake

I used to run my sis mountain bike with a disc up front and a V on the rear, back in the day, it worked well and can be easier depending on the nature of rear drop outs.

The silver Rival cranks were a good score for this build. I don't even mind the paint job.

Unfortunately no. Also track geo on a CX course may not be very fun.
