I suddenly remembered coaster brakes today, you know, the ones that you pedal backwards on to brake.... but can still coast..... Well this got me thinking, couldn't you build a coaster brake hub, and put a fixed sprocket on it? I seem to remember seeing a bike once on Ebay or fixed gear gallery that was like this...
Anyone got any ideas about this? I have a frame and would be up for trying it out. Does anyone have any ideas where you could get a coaster brake hub from??
