Hi Chucky, thanks for your suggestions. For #1, I'm assuming it's a strap that squeezes the front brake lever against the handlebars to engage the brake, like the "brake bands" pictured on the clickstand site, correct? For #2, I'm not quite picturing where the strap would go to secure the front fork. A clickstand could be an interesting option. Are you using one?
