Thought I'd pop in for an update. What I've got for the build so far

VO Porteur Bars
Natural Cork Bar Tape (Potentially Shellacking it?)
VO Brake Levers
Origin8 Quill Stem 100mm -17d

I'm reusing a set of 700c wheels I had from another bike. The frame appears to have plenty of clearance, so I'm hoping to put some pretty wide tires on it.

I've got brakes on it currently, but their from a donor bike that wasn't well cared for. If they stay on, they'd be temporary until I find something else.

I've also got an old Shimano 600 groupset on there currently paired with the original Peugeot Crank. (I'm afraid the crankarms might be too short, so they might have to go, time will tell.) I, ideally, want to get barcons, but most of them seem out of my price range currently.

I'll post pics soon when I have it more partially assembled.
