Wow, Looks fantastic. Loving the chrome

I have a set of these brakes and levers in my spares box somehwere, they do make it look nice and neat on the bars.

Awesome bike, very cool build sir. Is that combo brake/shifter something you made custom, or were they available like that? Very sweet either way. There is a similar Ross down the street from me, chained to a fence and rotting away under a snowbank, I've tried to buy it from the owner (or the dude who lives in the apartment and says he's the owner) to no avail.

Enjoy yours!
