I just purchase a used Electra Straight 8 to convert to electric. I love the look of this bike. I want to put a bafang BBSHD mid drive system on the bike. I noticed however that the bike only has coaster brakes on the rear wheel, the kind that stop you when you pedal backwards. It has no brakes on the front wheel at all, and it does not have the holes required to install a disk brake. I don't think the rear coaster brakes will be adequate after conversion to electric. Does anyone have any ideas on front brake options that might work on this bike. Thanks!
