Let your imagination run wild and do what you want to do with this bike to make it ride like you want it to ride.You have a good frame and its pretty new so go for it and don't worry about not being period correct its not an antique or really a vintage bike yet BUT if you change stuff on it keep the old items in case it becomes more collectable in the future. Have a blast this is all about fun
