    Black Levers?

    Remember that annodizing will turn purple in the sun. powder coat is your best option. But a can of spray paint may take a long time to use up no matter how much it wears off!

    Which tire catches the nails?

    two, both the rear. I have heard and am starting to agree that the front one stands them up for the rear to run over.........always buy the roadhazard warranty! My first one was within a month of owning the bike less than 1500 miles!
