I've been going back n forth on this one...but the way I see it, I have a disc rear, not a drum. And since I hardly EVER use the front brake, I won't really miss it.

I have a GMA caliper sittin in a box, though. Just in case I should ever change my mind

As an Ex-Moto Crosser I hardly ever use the REAR brake
Try an emergency stop with rear only, then vise-verse. I think you'll change your mind.
