Installing the brakes

This road bike stuff is all foreign to me. Drop bars, positioning the levers in the right spot, fiddly cable runs - give me a mountain-bike any day ;^)

 

The only easy part was positioning the v-brake pads that the Pauls use. I've never owned a v-brake bike and setting the toe-in was much easier than the Shimano pads on my canti-equiped commuter MTB. When you tighten the bolt up on these nothing moves!
