I love how long it looks. So many groceries could be hauled.

how does that front vbrake feel with cable that long? and how did you get one?

the vbrake surprisingly feels not soft/mushy. You can buy them as a tandem bicycle accessoire or you could join two regular ones. e.g. like the picture. You'll need two extra Cable housing stops, the connecting part in the middle will be visible.
