Soma Wolverine Build
Busch & Müller IQ-X dynamo light. Bright, not as large as a Luxos, and able to be mounted upside down in case I want to get a front rack. It seems pretty good, but I do like the beam pattern on my Philips Saferide more, and the flickering at walking speeds is a bit annoying. I was hoping the standlight feature would eliminate that once charged, but that's not the case. Guess you might need the cache battery for the Luxos U for that? I also like having a reflector just in case the light fails, so I installed the optional front reflector that came with the light.
White compressionless Jagwire brake cables, since the TRP Spyres recommend compressionless. I decided to go with a black and white theme instead of just black to lighten up the bike.
SRAM Apex 10 speed shifters. Double tap is interesting. Very clicky. Not sure if I prefer the positive response of shifting from double tap or the smoothness of Shimano more. I do prefer the larger hoods of Shimano.
Went with cable actuated brakes to support interruptor levers. I do like being able to brake from that position.
Stock black shift cables. Bike Ribbon Elganza bar tape. First time taping bars--the tape on my 2010 is pretty worn, but I've been too lazy to replace.
