• Good work! Can't argue with £150, especially first time around.

    The pip on the DT is to stop the band being pulled down the tube, trashing your paint.

    A little work on the cabling needed: the outer into the RD needs to be longer, so the inner enters the derailleur at a less acute angle. The brakes are a little too long and normally routed over, rather than under, the bars.

    The front tyre looks a bit knobbly; PM me your address and I'll send you a road tyre: only cheap but better than that!

    Those brake levers would be top of my list to replace: those extensions are deadly and only ever found on the very cheapest bikes.
