Pedal to the medal
Very very very cool. Great job.
I'm surprised the OA removed the paint on the fork, I assumed OA was paint safe.

Finally had a bit more time to work on this project. Stronglight 93 crankset w/ single ring installed on a Stronglight French-threaded BB, rear hub had a broken indicator stuck in it, which I didn't realize until last night, but was able to pull it apart today, get some purchase on that broken rod, and spin it out. My collection of replacement indicators is a motley crew (all those little chains seem to be mangled right at the point they contact the axle nut) but found one that works. And I retapped the DS shifter mount to M5 and installed a cable stop. Chain guard is a V-O project, which also took some modification to get it to fit. Those pedals are placeholders as the NDS one is quite bent. I'm thinking of installing fenders and a kickstand, and that should be it.

Okay, here are some final pics of this build before I offer it up to a co-worker. I’ve had these steel Wald fenders kicking around for years, and figure the shiny chrome of fenders, chain guard, and fork would be a look. I also added an Esge kickstand, which seems right for this kind of bike.

Outstanding. Old mixtes are always worth the effort!
