Thanks Gregory.

Yes I plan on using matching tyres when I buy the parts to build the front wheel next month. But a dynohub and fancy rims are expensive and sometimes hard to come by so spread out buying things so it fits within my budget.
I expect this to be done in 2-3 months from now. Just in time for summer to start around here and to enjoy longer rides.

This month I ordered the lights so I can prepare some stuff and spend some time wiring everything up just the way I want. Looking forward to figuring out how to run the wire on the inside of the rolled edge of the fenders. Should make for a very clean look.
