You took your brake off just because someone told you too?
2 brakes + fixed is ultimate win, don't understand why more people who ride drilled frames don't do it. I've never had a flip/flop hub so when I went fixed that was it. Don't think, it's a piece of piss.
Glad you're enjoying life on the flip side of things. Enjoy tomorrows commute.
Yep certainly am enjoying, also was told by a person on the forum to take of the brake, and then later by the mechanic in my local shop when they saw I had switched to fixed. But before I was riding fixed with 2 brakes (lucky i haven't been near any BIG hills eh) I feel ok without the back brake though, plus I still have the front brake for emergencies, and I will keep the back brake so if I want to I can put it back on.
I mean as long as my chain doesn't brake i'll be fine.
