Title: Radification
Post by: Radiculous on August 13, 2022, 07:39:17 PM
My 2022 RR6p. 4 mo, 459mi, 5 crashes (most recent just now).
Stored "Wesr Bikes" Ulock to the rack which offsets the pannier nicely in the appropriate color scheme. This lock works perfectly as a cafe style lock and it's rubberized.
8" Bar extender with a Hirreyis 1800 lumen light bar giving a flat bar look.
2 Corky Urban bar end mirrors (Not shown (very well)).
And some 4mm cable wrap. This stuff is awesome. I even wrapped  the silver fender braces with it. So now...they blend.
Planning on swapping out that ugly, buzzing 7 speed shifter with an under the bar quick shifter.
The UI controller looks like an old CRT television mounted on the bars. If anybody knows of low profile unit or modification, please chime in.

Brake pads are dust.  Ordered what I hoped would fit online.
So.... while I'm waiting for my RadPads to arrive, put some 3m reflective rim stickers on.
Is it too much?..., I'm thinking 🤔

Those look pretty good and the main thing is that, if you ride at night, too much is not enough.

Radiculous, Looks like your front tire is rolling backwards.

Thanx, Half of my commute is moonshine time.  I'm really impressed on how these stickers reflect even in daylight.

HaHa, It is isn't it.  I thought it sounded a little off.

 Ditched the twist for a thumb throttle and slipped on full size, locking, gel padded grips. The comfort factor increased dramatically. Climbing technicals is alot easier now, being that I'm not getting the wrist involved as much.

Some pics of the lightning I'm using.

They didn't have the 3000 when I purchased the 1800 version.  The light works great but the mounting bracket is absolute dodoo.
