Neat rig, I'm inspired

I have a thrift shop stumpjumper I'm putting road bars for a similar style bike, but after seeing yours I'm going to have to pick a road frame out of my pile and build it up with a MTB triple and cyclocross tires.
Gorgeous frame and I like your front shifter location!

Thanks for the complements. If you want to put cyclo-cross tires on a road frame, just make sure the bike uses the long reach type. Road frames from the late 80's and beyond usually require shorter reach brakes that cannot utilize cyclo-cross tires. Good luck
