Have just taken it out and put it through its paces: damn nearly had an orgasm!

Looks very nice mate.
Just think.....with some Skinnier tyres you'd be even faster. :angry:

I don't get it.
Not having a rear brake doesn't make sense to me.

It's a fixie: it doesn't need one.

Thanks. The denizens of the LBS drooled over it :biggrin:

is the front disc brake powerful enough to slow down?

Easily!. I can also apply back pressure on the pedals - often this is only what is required to slow down or moderate your speed.

I was going to ask about back pedaling....but I edited my question. :thumbsup:
