No problems at all, I like the pletscher alot.

Tell me about the Acorn Bag. How much does it sway? How difficult is it to remove and install on another bike?
Acorn bag is AWESOME!!!!! Very little sway if you get the straps good and tight. Probably not the greatest to move around bike to bike but not a huge pain in the ass either. I am ordering a Rando bag from them next month.

I hate to mention lights again, but my experience with the PBSF on a saddlebag is that it doesn't work well at all.
I switched bikes with a friend the other night on a laid back MUP ride so he could try out my ride and the PBSF was perfectly visable. I am riding again tonight and will try it with the bag empty which might cause enough sag in the bag to effect the light. With a full or mostly full bag it works fine.

Less caring about cable routing, More pictures and impressions of the bike.
Fenders are on and a VO Pass Hunter front rack that I installed last night. I will post pics tonight or tomorrow.
