Oh Boy, I was hoping this had dropped off the radar. Rack will be fixed, just didn't know how much stress it could take. The fenders are what I had and they will most likely come off, honjos maybe, woodies NO Thanks, I'm not much into fenders anyway. I like the yellow cable, I have seen the silver braided and don't think there is enough polished on this bike to make those work. I have obtained some faux leather black wrap. I do have a honey brooks... want to see if I can make the black work. The candys are by necessity to ride this coming week on the Blue Ridge Parkway. I have a sugino drillium double, but it does not afford me the gearing I want, however it would look good.
So I will go back to the drawing board with the constructive criticism and opinions (no I'm not slamming anything on the ground) and try again.
