I'm building up a Cotic Roadrat as my winter bike, and plan to run it with disc brakes.
The problem is that I want to use a dynohub up front, and since the Roadrat fork has the disc brake mount positioned on the front of the right fork leg, the dynohub (an Alfine S501) will have to run against the recommended rotational direction.
Is this going to be a problem? Will the hub loosen itself, or will it tighten the bearings while running? Come to think of it, why does a dynohub have a recommended rotational direction in the first place? It's AC, so it should be quite agnostic about directions
