(pictures to follow)
Ok, here's the official To-Do list for our fleet (we have five now!) of bikes:
the Wife's 3-speed
-- true front wheel
-- locking top for crate
xx baby bracket
-- permanent lights
my Utility/Baby Hauler bike
-- switch brake levers *
xx new shifters
-- buckets on pedals
xx rack
-- crate (on rack), removable?
-- replace front brake pads
xx kickstand
Fixie
-- build up rear wheel with flip/flop hub (ordered)
xx big chain ring (a 52!)
-- put vbrakes, levers on from K2
xx baskets on pedals
The "--" items are left to do, "xx" are things I did today...
* I am fully convinced that Right-hand Front-Brake, Left-hand Rear-Brake is the right way to go. Read Sheldon Brown's article if you don't agree with me and report back.

I agree about the brake lever setup...even though none of my bikes are set up that way (well, I have one bike with no brakes, and one with just a front); the first I heard about setting things up that way was Paul DeKroon, because he was a motorcycle rider.
Yeah, it just makes more sense. Especially from a motorcyclist.
