Nice bike. Did you switch the wheels from 27" to 700c?

They really looks great. I am putting the finishing touches on a red and white Nishiki Sport mixte for a friend. Bike has been in the works for over a year and I finally got the tires and cable taken care of. I thought it looked sharp, but yours would make mine feel jealous so I will have to keep it away from the computer.

That's not a Selecta crank, so probably not.
