Nope, no issues at all. Just

Absolutely beautiful build. Looking for a frame to start one for my gal as well. May I ask, where can one find brake levers like those vintage touring? Happy riding!

Thanks, she loves it. Just

Thanks, she loves it. Just do a search for "touring levers" on ebay they should pop up. They're kinda crappy however as they're not spring loaded. I've been looking around for something to replace them but my search has been fruitless.

Try Shimano R440 levers.

Try Shimano R440 levers. Nice, brushed metal finish and good action. They have them for less than at universalcycles.com.

purty

I really do like this bike!

beautiful job

Now that is one very nice restoration/transformation. Congratulations !!!

wooshhhhhhhhh

i would love to spin this thing around chicago with a little dog in the front [cool ass bike].love the lugs.

best. conversion. ever.

This bike is pure class. I love how the Nervex lugs are highlighted. Sweet!

This is a beautiful bike.

I especially love how the mavic's, mks's, and white selle are really nice modern bike parts but they seem like they could have come stock on this bike.
