Good looking conversion! I have some question.. How did you installed the cable stops on the top tube and the rear derailleur. And how do you shift gears?

Haha, a bike is never done! Stoked for you & this build, though. Seems like this frame has seen a lot; I really love the build w/ drops & the Colnago fork.

Probably the sickest beater I've ever seen, the wound up really sets the build off!

Pretty neat what you did to those fenders. Pretty subtle. Looks like a fun ride.

Did you have to space out the frame for the road wheel?
