I agree with the others; Maxxis DTHs and braided silver housing would be perfect for this beautiful bike. Man, what a score! Congrats!

I want to get some quieter and smoother rolling tires. I love gum walls but I think black would look better on this one. Maybe some silver or accent colored cables. Any thoughts or ideas?
