Let's face it. I rode SS about a year ago, before I'd tried fixed and swapped, and only used a front brake because it looks sooooo much better - better than having all of those cables hanging around - that's the only reason I had one front brake - because bikes look cooler without all of the cabling!
That was one of the reason I got into FG/SS because I saw pics of these amazing machines that were so trim and smart and neat compared to my hefty Road and BMX!!
