@Julio
I have searched through all the old threads but I'm still unsure about what to do.
I'm putting together my first fixed and I'd like to have a front brake on it.
I like the look of the dirty harry/ bmx style cross levers, but I never ride with my hands anywhere near this would be. I have drop bars, so I don't think its a good solution for me, even thought I think they look good.
Does anyone have any advice on what would be a good alternative to suit the way I ride? I want to try my bike out for the first time knowing I have a brake in a useful postion as I've never ridden fixed before.
