Race bikes with only front brakes....

To be honest Joff its just something that popped into my head this morning whilst working out what bits I needed to complete the build. I really like the idea of a narrative build reflecting the whims we all had over parts as kids. The frameset arrived to me with a front brake and no rear and I thought it would do it justice to keep that format. It was never going to be era correct or a show winner so I might just go for it anyway, freestyle brake and all ;D

A bike with only a front wouldn't pass scrutineering at a race meeting.
I used to run front and rear brakes at certain tracks, it all depended on the track really.
