I just wired a clem (dark greenish? bronzey? not sure the official color) because it's so dark, the black B&M wire hardly shows as it twirls up the fork leg. it goes under the basket to the left side where the front light is.
the rear light follows the cabling to the rear brake, all the way to the noodle, where it parts right around the area the rear rack starts. i used 'clear' zip ties all along the way. the rack has a kids seat attached to it so it serves as a good place to hide the rack under, at which point it exits to feed into the rear light. on my red hillborne it's a lot more apparent it exists, but i use color matched zip ties where i can. on this bike, with all its accoutrements, i hardly notice it's there.
