Thanks Wes, I never noticed the re-packing kit before. Is there a preferred grease, or is any bike gunk good?

Ride tonight was good, wind provided a decent work out across Bloor somewhat, and definitely around the Ex. Great to be riding again, woo.

I use the Tektro RL720s, I've found them a huge help being able to ride on the tops in traffic (geared bike so F&R) and they seem to work(tm). Saying that, I don't swap them out - they're a perma-fixture on my road drops. I'll probably get something similar again for my fixed gear front lever, I'm just umming and arring over choice of caliper and I want black ideally.

Nice stats, I'd like to speed/power in there too... I want to do that ride soon, anyone have a route map?
