Well I thought if I needed a rear brake i would not drill but have 2 tool dip coated plates on each side of the stays with a front brake and the bolt going through both to act as a clamp, not to be completely trusted with carbon I don't think though.
The thing that scares me most about this whole prospect is getting onto a really windy road and not being able to slow down enough to turn.
If it's a straight road I know that I could take my time to slow down (mentally)
