Post by: pickle on October 06, 2008, 08:05 AM: yeah as said i they came complete with the Oddy 2000 brake sets (i think) and the rear brake was set up the wrong way.....ie: underneath the seat stay rather than on the top so it didn't get in the way of your feet on frame stands......but i've not seen anyone set theirs up this way......even mine! :LolLolLolLol:
