I am a sucker for chrome bikes and mostly love your build, not to mention that seeing how great it looks makes it difficult to fight the impulse to snatch up one of those frames.
But your 1st pic demonstrates one of the reasons why I never liked Brooks saddles all that much. I am sorry but I find the nose pointed at the sky like that unattractive. I understand that may be how one needs to set a Brooks for comfort, but to me it is simply the reverse of guys pointing their saddles down for their comfort and they get mocked.
Why is one kind of odd saddle angle OK, while another is fodder for riducule?
BTW...how long you planning to keep that black brake lever
