I do have a converted Raleigh Gran Sport fixed/ss but I just bought a new ss frame with track dropouts.
I'm considering a modern Sturmey Archer internal gear hub.
I thought this forum's crowd might add some perspective.

I would stick with caliper brakes. I run a caliper on the front of my bike w/ bullhorns and just run the brake housing under the grip tape. It looks good and works well, too. You don't even really need a rear brake, even if it is just a SS. I didn't even run a rear brake on my road bike for a little while
