As OP stated he was considering this handlebar for a fixed Steamroller - I'd say that swapping brake levers among bars on phiksies can generally be a pretty easy job, and that it is switching around shifters on gearies which is the hard part, so the Corner Bar loses most of its raison d'etre on one-gear bikes
Having said that...Bring Back the Fixxer!!!
