Small update...
I was away for almost two months touring around the UK in a camper van, but I'm back and things are happening.
Decision was made to build it up as a geared road bike, so with the help of the nice folks at Nova Cycles Supply I got a set of cable stops and other 'braze on' parts. Obviously I'm using a 'glue and screw' method to fix these!
Front derailleur
STI stops on the down tube
Cable stop on the chain stay



I've installed a bottom bracket and now all I need to do is source the final few parts. Have done well with gifted parts and some cheap second hand, but the last couple of things are proving hard to get so I might just have to pony up some real money and buy new ones.
Missing:
- front derailleur
- shift/brake levers
