Well considered as usual Bill. Another advantage of the hydraulic setup is not
needing to order a tandem brake cable and hope it will make it all the way to
the caliper. The cable works fine for me, but probably because I don't have a
hydraulic setup to compare it to. Ignorance is bliss.

Aside from BBDD's stem issue, a number have noted that the sleeved bars
sometimes creak. I would expect that the sleeve is inflexible when clamped
properly in the stem. The bars flex quite a bit, and the flexing may deform the
inner bar a tiny bit at the ends of the sleeve and cause the creak.
Flip your curved seat stays and you might be looking at an s-curve when
combined with the swoop tube.

My wife has a RadCity. It has 26" wheels and more or less resembles a
city/hybrid/hardtail. It has a throttle button in addition to pedal assist and
also has regenerative braking. It all went together fine and works as
advertised, but with about 100 miles on it it's too early to say anything

I think my contract requires that finder's fees be paid in beer. Hope you're
enjoying the snow and that whatever is happening at my house is all cleared up

Thanks all and especially to Paul, the OP, and to Bill for his restraint. The
bike is in great shape and lighter and zippier than I expected. I'll post when
I get it set up.
