Best Front Brake for FG

At first, I didn't ride with brakes on my bike but my knees now ache a bit and I was wondering what is the best (in your opinion) front brake for my fixed gear bike?

Bike is a Raleigh Rush Hour that came with Tektro Dual Pivot w/Cartidge Pads that are missing/lost since I didn't need brakes at the time. Full specs ---> http://www.raleighusa.com/bikes/stee.../rush-hour-13/

If you don't still have your brake, which should be fine, then get a $30 Shimano Sora brake.

Tektro RL538 is a nice medium-reach brake as well, even with the stock pads.

Well, you did ask what the best front brake was -- maybe you meant to ask something different?
