Mounted some lights today!

I gave the rear light the special treatment with a SON coaxial wire running through the rolled fender edges so it's practically invisible. I have a similar cable running through the frame to the headset so I went with one of SON's coaxial connectors. They are a pain to solder on but the end result is really nice and means I can just pop off the fender if I ever want to.
The front light was swapped to the other side to prevent water spray damage but I'm not sure I like how exposed it's going to be in racks this way. I'll think on what I want to do with that next month when I will hopefully be able to build the front dynamo wheel.






Instead of buying a new kickstand I decided to just strip and polish the old one. It was pretty corroded and the black paint was flaking off.
