Yes and switch every now and again with a fixed cog so I can get used to it.
You need to be able to brake in two separate ways, in case one fails.
So that's either two brake calipers or one brake caliper and back pedalling, which won't work with a freewheel.
I get that, OK, but I didn't even consider this as I never had a brake fail on me? As I said, my commute to work is quite short, less than 2 miles and I rarely go Super Man.
