It's a steel frame & fork so how challenging would it be to have V-brake bosses fitted on the frameset?

For me, the main challenge would be talking myself into ruining the paint job on a perfectly good frame to put v-brakes on it. If you are proposing to do it yourself, it depends on your skills.

For the price of the frame, mod, and paint you could get a Troll instead

Those who ask this type of question are rarely ready to do the work efficiently. Andy
