To which I reply:

Check out http://www.biketoolsetc.com

They have stainless metric socket head bolts for a really nice price.  These
are the ones you'll use the most: http://tinyurl.com/4o4f4ys  Longer ones
are nice for when you need to  bolt a rack and fenders to the same spot on
the dropout.

I'm sure that if you poke around that site for a few minutes, you'll find
something else you need and the bolts will ride for free.  There's lots of
good stuff there.  I highly recommend the Super Soap hand cleaner.  The best
I've ever used!

On an unrelated note, they seem to have the Sturmey Archer three speed fixed
hub in stock, too!

Minh,

I've played with straddle cable lengths and hanger heights a bit, and
if you stay really close to where you are but just ensure the hanger
doesn't interfere with the rack, you shouldn't notice any big
difference.

I ordered straddle cables from JensonUSA and/or from Speedgoat a while
back and worst case you'd be replacing the straddle cable and the
cable hanger, which you can also buy separately.
