Thanks for all of the nice comments!

I did a great deal of research for this bike because I wanted a reliable, inexpensive, comfortable, utilitarian, good-looking bike.
Basically, what I was going for was a tough dutch bike with the sophistication of an english roadster for the price of something you could buy from target.

Bought the bike and saddle on craigslist.
Bought the bags on ebay.
Odds and ends from Amazon.
Fabricated all the custom stuff myself.

All in all, I only spent about $500 total.

Really proud of this build and not afraid to actually use it!

The only other plans for the bike are some creme colored schwalbe tires.
