Beautiful ride. The only fly in the ointment I can see is that you may want to straighten the angle of the PBSF to make it perpendicular to the ground. Might just be the camera angle. If so, nevermind.

Planet Bike mtb fenders can be had for 34.00 from www.bikeisland.com w/no shipping. They're 60mm, so able to cover any size tires up to 2.0 I'd think.

Purchased a 3x7 Univega ht/hf w/1.75 street tires from Goodwill for 10.00 a few months ago and am going to mod it into a winter beater. Bike has less than 50 miles on it, I'll bet. The only thing I don't like is the indexed front shifter. Going to swap it out for a 'ratcheting' twist-grip, thumb-finger friction like yours or even a stem mount lever. My wife's got an old Crossroads w/a ratcheted twist grip and having the option to vary the trim is great.
