Ahh that makes a little more sense now hah.

I would go with the BB7 brakeset if I were to replace the ****ty Tektro Novela set I have.

And thanks might I add! I'd love to give her the blackout treatment, I'm not a huge fan of white and lots of branding.

I know it's a fairly pedestrian bike compared to a lot of the ones I've seen in this thread, but it's new to me, it's a huge step up from what I had been riding, and it has made riding a lot more fun overall.

Also, I found that when I hung my taillight off the loop on my seat bag, it would always just tip down and aim itself at the tire. I needed to figure out a way I could mount it so that it pointed straight back. So, I made this little taillight mounting bracket to fix that problem. It ain't exactly pretty, but it gets the job done.

Looks great! Good to know you're happy with it!

Noticed you have half-clips, you find it's a fairly reasonable improvement over just straight platforms?
