Potato, potahto. Neither approach is particularly elegant. Once the bottle cage is on, I don’t notice the presta nut. One would have to look very closely to notice them.
Adding a presta nut is a step I don’t want to take at the expense of having the cable connections higher on the dt
I run the wire to the end of the NDS chainstay then loop it up to my light (or run it up the chairtube, through the seatpost, and have the light fastened to the saddle rails.)
I usually put my tiny side bag in there too.

yeah! the butt rocket out back had a 20 F sleeping bag, a uniqlo puffer jacket, and a few other heattech bits and bobs from them as off-bike wear. paired with the cycling kit i had i was surprisingly well-dressed on and off bike
up front is a REI half dome 3 person tent. i bought it used ten years ago; it was my first big non-bike purchase in high school. sadly its starting to give up the ghost and its flaking like crazy inside. its bulky and not especially light but with careful packing it fits in front of my handlebars.

Hell yeah looks nice
Down in Texas so yeah, we went from hot and muggy to 30-40f and rainy on Friday. Wintry mix isn’t terribly common for us.
Not at all mine but just finished this build for sup. And by finished I mean it still needs the lights installed but that might be a thing for after vacation

I keep a Spyderco Dragonfly in my little jersey pouch. It’s 34g.
Milwaukee fast back 100%. I use it too much to keep it sharp or fuck with it. It flips open easy, since I back pocket carry it doesn’t instantly destroy wooden chairs like my benchmade did. Granted I’m not this forums most likely use case example, since I use mine for more than opening Amazon packages and spreading peanut butter. Damn hippies!
