I know theres a lot of front brake hate here, but hear me out. Im in the proccess of building my first fixie and I definitely want to have the option of a front brake. What front brake would you guys recommend?
Edit: My budget for the brakes is under $35 and I found these two brakes but I have no way of knowing which one will be better: https://www.amazon.com/Tektro-Bicycle-Reach-Calipers-55-73mm/dp/B01MRJ8RE7/ref=sr_1_5?keywords=dual%2Bpivot%2Bbike%2Bbreaks&qid=1569168748&sr=8-5&th=1
