Lol, Doug. Yes, you’re onto something. I took a slight departure from that rabbit hole (the tinkering hole) and plunged into a different one (the new bike hole). I LOVE the Platy as it’s currently set up. I don’t think I’ll change it. I’ve discovered that dyno wires and light mounts make that very difficult. Instead of tinkering with the near-perfect Platypus, I’m adding a new bike and setting it up for different purposes. The raspberry bike will remain my main squeeze, used for pleasure, exercise, and light errands.
