In some states a bike has to be equipped with a brake or you get a ticket. These setups are usually workarounds for legal compliance by people too immature to realize that if you HAVE to mount a brake it might as well be a functional one.
Maybe they're worried about losing street cred by riding a brake you can actually use, dunno

Should have made and extension for the shift lever so this could be a dedicated "endo" bike.

top tube covers make bikes look really tacky, and, while they may offer protection against wear, they look a lot worse than normal wear/scuffs. they remind me of when people put plastic over their furniture at home or their seats in cars.
