Woah, I couldn't quite picture the frame built up from reading the other thread. But that looks rad. Be sure to post up some more shots once it is finished.

I have to agree with a previous poster about the fork. I bet that bike had a small front wheel originally.
But if you want a more upright position I would look for a cheap 1" thread carbon road fork that will at least have tight clearences and match the shape of the bike better. You can always paint it to match. A fork like that should be pretty easy to find as they are pretty much obsolete these days.

Looks cool nevertheless. Wish I had some parts to donate. I see you already have a matching cow bell.
That thing is crying out for some world champ stripes or something. Wait a sec...I do have some new Campy decals. PM me if you want them. Looking foward to the final build.

Ok in the interest of scienece, I am willing to donate a 1", 700c carbon fork. It is threadless so you would need a different headset. PM me if you want it for this ride, Not re-sell.

Haha I'm glad you decided to build this thing up. I wish I had some parts to donate!
