Joplin Remote Upgrade Kit

I originally purchased the Joplin L because I got a great deal on it. After one ride, I didn't dig it so much. It was more convenient than getting off the bike to adjust the seat position, but the finesse wasn't there. Having to take your hands off the handlebars and reach between your legs pretty much defeats the purpose. The upgrade kit was pretty straight forward, but the instructions left something to be desired. The pictures are crap, and it instructs you to install cable guides which don't actually exist. So the install took a little bit longer than it should have. But overall, this definitely makes the Joplin experience much better.
