If you're going to have baskets you might want to go with a slime tube so the chances of a flat are a lot less. Also might need to get a lock of some kind unless you can park it inside at work. Maybe go with a front fenders to keep the spray down the rack ought to do that in the rear. Sounds like you will be riding at night so get some good reflective clothing or vest so you'll be seen. Great thread will be watching your progress. Good luck
