I said if you are not running fixed you need a back brake. Yes, people can set up their bikes (not there btw) as they want, but if you have a freewheel on the rear how do you plan on stopping if the front starts to slide?
As for "Who am I to tell people they need a back brake lol?"
I am nobody. You are perfectly entitled to run your SS with no brakes if it pleases you, but I shall 'lol' at the outcome. LOL.
