Surly Cross Check

That red cross check is a beauty, really well done.

What have you done with the brakes? I might just be missing it in the pics, but I can't see the travel-agent style things you post in the current project thread - have you fitted them? If not, how are you getting the v's to work properly?

They might be mini-Vs, which work with road levers. I've tried them, and the stopping power is excellent, but they have to be set up very close to the rims.
