I may have accidentally picked up a HED disc for £100 with the intention for it just being cool to own but I think I’m going insane now that I have seen it on a bike what version are we thinking is nicer
Personally I would not run a QR rear axel on a fixed gear conversion. I know that Sheldon says it’s fine to run QR on any style of drop outs fixed, and who am I to say that the GOAT is wrong… but it just doesn’t sit right with me.

May I ask why your single brake is a rear brake?

Personally, a disc wheel looks off on anything with a longer wheelbase. Anything but a track or tt bike doesn’t look right for a disc.
