One gorgeous tease😉
You may have to get a shorter bolt for the cable guide, might interfere with the angled cable.
It's just giving glimpses of what it'll be like all built up but there's still so much more to do, like some gold writing Dia Compe outers for the brakes which are in the post 😁

Good spot with the cable guide bolt i'll have to cut that down to suit.
 
First try with tyres on the wheels and it's a nope from me, the front is sort of okish but the rear i hate the look with the wide profile and chunky tread it just doesn't work for the look for the bike. 2.1 is the way forward on the front to fill the space on the Project Two's but the rear needs to be 1.95 with a more rounded profile.

Initially I thought wow they look a bit chunky, now the more I'm looking, the more they are growing on me lol, what size are they I can't make out the print from here?
 
They're both 2.1 Alpha Bites.
It's when you look from the front of the bike where you see how big the rear one looks and how close that huge tread is to the chainstay,i could easily see it chomping at the paintwork lol
 
Why have Deore when you can have Deore XT 😁 swapped the Deore crankarms for some Deore XT and fitted the chain which is black and silver and goes nicely with the chainset and the black and silver of the XT mechs, just need to set it up now.
And the tyres are still a big fat nope for me so there going the journey.
