Fitted accessories:
-
Fitted a pair of Universal Bicycle Swivel Mounts to hold the Fenix L2D headlights. Discussion of the mounts can be found here.
- Fitted a set of SKS Chromoplastic 50mm silver mudguards. Not as simple an installation as I expected and some fine tuning is still need.
- Installed a Topeak Turbo Morph With Gauge pump. I have mounted this using the bidon braze ons below the down-tube. Will see how this goes in terms of road grunge etc.
- Installed a Tubus Cargo (silver) rear rack.
- Changed the mounting of the Smart SuperFlash rear tail light. It is now fitted alongside a second SuperFlash to the rear of the Tubus Cargo rack.
- Installed my Avenir top bag to the Tubus Cargo. Not convinced this is the best option but will see how it goes.
