• @Skülly I've had a google/eBay for Avid Shortys. They look great. My current brake setup (different to the above but I'm updating this as quickly as I can) is not ideal so I will consider that when/if changing. The faff of setting them up does bother me though.

    I just hate the look of panniers. And the sort of deadness the steel frame feels when riding with a loaded one. My Brooke's bag does me fine. Also no gears for me! I just enjoy single speed too much.

  • Re cantis not working well, in this pic you have the yoke set quite far from the tyre, if you could lower it to get the straddle cable at a less pointy angle that might help. But cantis are fiddly to set up, better to get some v- or mini v-brakes.
