Thanks for the kind words! The fenders and tires were key to bringing it together for me. There's something about silver parts on a green bike with natural/tan sidewall tires. #timeless
I used an Origin8 clamp-on frame mount cable guide for the v-brake conversion instead of the guide used for the original canti brakes. I struggled on deciding between black or silver clamp. Black would hide more but felt it would look out of place. I'm happy with the choice of silver. I hope the pic helps your project.
