Thanks, it certainly is looking different to when I got it first already.

Yes, I agree with you on the decal / labelling it is nicer on the euro model.

Oh great! that's a job for lunchtime tomorrow then: adjusting the brake pedal

edit: went out with the torch and its now done, much better!

A torch is really not needed. The brake pedal is designed to be adjusted with simple tools.

OH...................a torch is your flashlight. I had a vision of you out there with a hot flame and bending the pedal down after heating it.
Be sure to make a check for proper brake light function too. The brake light switch is adjustable too.

Haha gotcha.

Yeah I made sure that was all working, it is MUCH more comfortable now!

The mirrors are going to take a bit of getting used to though

Today I took Cooter out for a walk. I thought he'd like a taste of road even though he still isn't running

Did you need a leash or does he heel properly?

Well, I pretty much had to keep two hands on him at all times or else he'd throw himself to the ground. He's kinda dramatic/needy like that.

I added some white LED light strips to my bike. I wired them to a mini toggle switch on the left side cover under the seat.
