Looks nice, but your rear brake hose is gonna snag that wheel, or some branches or an innocent bystander.

Welcome!

I'm in Bostonia we'll see each other on the trial soon I'm sure.

X3 on the rear hose. Looks like you could even snag a foot on it mounting or dismounting the bike.

Welcome from Santee as well and +4 on that rear brake line if anything until you can cut/bleed it pull more to the front and zip tie it.

If you are interested a few of us are doing a night ride around 6 tonight near our neck of the woods if you are interested p.m. for info.
