YA ONLY NEED ONE...

Brake since 70 % of stopping power comes from the front break anyway and a rear brake is just pointless added weight although in your case added campy weight wich is pretty nice weight to have on a bike and i assume its fixed so technicaly you dont need any breaks so you mite as well toss out everything listed above cheers

Brakes

Yes I hear you... thats why I filed off the top tube cable guides because the rear will eventually go away. but alas, the bike was a build for my brother, so what ever he wants! My fixie is brakeless - I dont see a need for either one!
