Yes if you were lazy you could unlace the rear hub and rebuild with a coaster braked hub. Me, I prefer the long way round. I'd fit a standard rear caliper using the rear drilling and the cable stops on the frame :)
[half assed rant]Stopping with the front brake is fine, its what we all do most of the time. Skidding with the front wheel fecking hurts [/half assed rant]
Still worth a punt for £130 though.
