Doing it fixed (at least that's the plan) so will essentially have 3 ways of slowing. I know everyone's on the disc hype, and my next geared bike will have them, but for this I can't find a fixed frame that will have a disc brake attachment and allow forward/backward movement of the wheel to tension the chain - as I'll be using different gears. I was looking into the Trek Crockett frame but not really sure if it's worth it just to improve the braking when it will suffice using the Dolan FXE. I hope.
Will hunt for one of those then.. unless you're selling any?
Dynamo hub really worth the extra faff and energy? Or will keeping batteries charged up be even more of a faff? Thanks for your priceless info!
