promax dual brake lever (canti/mini-v/caliper pull): works really well despite its low price. i'd like it to have a shorter reach, or adjustment, but can't be picky at the price, which is about £12.
halo 48 spoke rear wheel, 700c, fixed/fixed: buckled at my first game, but it's machine-built with not particularly nice spokes, so i de-tensioned, lubed the nipples and now it seems much tougher. when you tension the spokes they feel oddly 'elastic' though, like the threads are stripping, almost. hub and rim seem good quality. damned cheap, really, £80-90.
