Sturmey Drum
i have the x-fdd dyno hub, and have been very happy with it. it provides plenty of stopping power, and my back brake is just the coaster brake that came on the bike. i have ridden it over mt. soledad twice ( i estimate ~15% grade), and didn't have any overheating issues on the way down. i tried to keep the speed up to avoid being overtaken by cars on the way down, but did use the brake a fair amount. overall, i am extremely happy with the product, and i am usually very picky.
