The wheels, cog, and chain arrived today, turned out that I ordered a 34 tooth version. I changed my mind on the 986 rear mech, and went with the M980 instead, the shop had a new one for only 9000 yen. They also had a NOS Dura Ace 7800 chainset and BB cheap. I wanted a Brooks B-17 special in black, but the shop didn't have one in stock. Then the mechanic said he had a titanium Swift that came in on a trade-in bike, so he sold it to me instead.

I couldn't find shifters anywhere, so I am bidding on a set at an online auction. Looks like I won't be able to get it all together until the middle of next week, but I can at least ride it for the moment with the original parts. The rear mech is loose and wiggly, and set up poorly, I can't get into the big ring without the cage touching the rim. Even so, the bike is fast, and a blast to ride. The monocoque frame is less flexy than mynold straight-tube Birdy. I can't wait to see how it will ride once it is finished.
