(Although I mostly grew that to wind up Mrs. Monkey...)<br /><br />Enjoy your Barley!John the Monkeyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12048680743149584464noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4187045535862431687.post-71323850360889771632009-11-02T20:18:47.205+00:002009-11-02T20:18:47.205+00:00It's a VERY nice bike, even though I say so my...It's a VERY nice bike, even though I say so myself :)<br /><br />The bracket for the Smart is one of these;<br /><a href="http://www.dotbike.com/ProductsP379.aspx?utm_source%3dinternal%26utm_medium%3d1%26utm_campaign%3dDPL" rel="nofollow">SMART LED Bracket for Rear Carrier (Dotbike)</a>.John the Monkeyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12048680743149584464noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4187045535862431687.post-18136900570029349472009-11-02T15:02:00.476+00:002009-11-02T15:02:00.476+00:00What adaptor are you using to mount the Smart Supe...What adaptor are you using to mount the Smart Superflash rear light to your rack?<br /><br />Looks like a nice bike.. :-)Chris Bainbridgehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07643379365896586125noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4187045535862431687.post-58553782170972835292009-10-30T20:04:16.871+00:002009-10-30T20:04:16.871+00:00Go for it Karl.

Do get a longflap version though - if you ever need to carry a bit more than you usually do, they're invaluable.John the Monkeyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12048680743149584464noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4187045535862431687.post-32950044268128661622009-10-30T16:52:50.038+00:002009-10-30T16:52:50.038+00:00Where the Monkey leads, others will follow - I'...Where the Monkey leads, others will follow - I've been thinking hard about the Nelson Longflap for my commuting too.
