Thanks for your question Chris. I would consider any type of brake including drum brakes. As you might know this bike has got drum brakes (coaster) in the back and no front brakes. I'm converting it to an electric bike by adding a Bafang 1000 W mid-drive motor which I've already purchased. When I do that, I need to come up with front and rear brakes for the bike as the rear coaster brakes will have to be disconnected. I really like the shape of this "chopper" bike and don't mind any fabrication or modification to makes it work. The bike has three internal gears which is ideal for the conversion to electric. The only issued is the brakes.
