FFS like they don't have other things to worry about

There's a rear brake.

Ok thanks, will have to make sure they're compliant. Front one will be fine, but the side numbers seem pretty big, so not sure they will fit on my belly pan properly!?

Get as close as you can. A few mm will not be noticed but a couple of inches will.

You can buy race number off ebay for pennies -

Might be wrong, but it is not just the number size and font that the time keepers where unhappy about, but the size and colour of the number board as well.
