However, two separate brake systems, one on each wheel are required both by law and common sense. One brake can fail any time.
For single speed (and fixed gear) bicycles, rear wheel can be stopped with pedals - but many people ride without the front as well. I've found that a good front brake is crucial for sudden situations, like pedestrians jumping on the bicycle lane - often happens where I ride.
