i ride with just a front brake on my SS becuase i dont have another lever and have never bothered to get one. never crashed and never had a problem in the wet ,and ive ridden the same bike everyday for 3, going on 4 years.
i know its probably not the best and theres always a first time, but to be honest i dont give a fuck, my bike works fine, is well maintained and i know how to ride it.
IMHO riding with just a front brake on an SS is no more silly than riding a brakeless fix.
