I think that looks like a Knog R70 rear light as well which I have, good light.

The first time you have to change cables, you will be glad they are externally routed!

This might solve some bottle issues by lowering things:

or if you want to switch out to a different cage:

Though I will say keep those Birds they are not made and really good at holding bottles.

I was looking at those King Cages and just might have to go that route. I've been looking at their Iris cages for my other bike anyway!

Varies are awesome; during Covid suddenly everyone I knew had one. And no one ever stopped using them.
