Hi!

I got a new fixed gear with really good track geo, so i dont want to crash, i dont know when the clips/chain/rear hub/cog dies, so i decided to put a front break to that. I can skid pretty well, but i'm afraid of any mechanical problem, and i dont want to go down the hill or in a road juction just because of that, and crash myself or the bike. What do you think? Is the front brake even needed, or it's just me afraid of that? The frame didnt need drilling, there is a hole for the front brake.
I often use the drop on the bar, especially on high speed (i ride 52-15 gear) so i decided to put a time trial bar-end lever to the bar. I know, that looks a little bit funny, but what do you think? I've never seen anybody using lever like this.
