Re:

Look at that geometry, lovely long stable top tube, massive tyre clearance. Reckon this should be more of a rider with black parts. You already have the show pony 10th. Fit it with fat ass 2.5” rubber and hammer it as intended :D

Cheers buddy, I am looking forward to seeing how the OP’s build goes and the first ride report as they are amazing to ride :)
 
Re:

Exactly, amazing to ride. Lots of people build incredible retro rigs and we never hear about ‘the ride’. What stands out, what lets the ride down etc. Its THE most important thing. If it doesnt have telepathic handling and make you feel safe in ‘unexpected hairy situations’, leaving you constantly thinking about it after you walk away, one more glance over the shoulder....its not special enough.
