I'd rather go for a diacompe dirty harry or goldfinger tight up against the stem.
they'll fit road bars.
I use a bmx lever taken from my cruiser, I had to stretch it out and use a longer bolt to force it to fit.
regarding sides, I have it on the right as I'm used to my single brake on BMX being on the left for a rear brake, so as my legs are the rear brake on the fixie, I can stil signal whilst braking.
I only really use the hand brake in emergencies or when I'm tired.
