Why wouldn't cantis work? You can add a hanger to the fork if the included one won't work and to the seatclamp bolt at the back if there isn't one there. If it's got studs on the frame, it should be possible.

Because the fork I'm considering has the posts on the back :)

Hmm interesting... is that a Pace?
Like I said, if you just want the chainset, RD, FD, cassette and chain, you can have that and I'll sell or donate the shifters and cantis elsewhere.

^ I bought a couple of those Tektro ‘power enhancer’ doodads and they seem to do the trick with cantis.
(I also have that Thorn fork. Still pondering what to throw it on and with what type of brake).

Price drops on the retro groupset and the quill stems.; now have 60, 80 and 100mm reach so buy a couple to test your fit!

dibs wheelset 26. does it accept 9 speeds cassette?
No, the freehub body is too narrow. Cassettes got wider when they went from 7 to 8-speed and then the sprockets and spacers got narrower to maintain the same width when they went to 9-speed.
You can run 8 sprockets from a 9-speed cassette on a 7-speed hub as per Sheldon's suggestion (my google-fu is weak right now).

Would you be willing to post both of these items? If so, and not too expensive I'll take them.

Sure, those bars and stem are easy enough to post. Should be a medium parcel, so £5 + paypal fees on top of the combined price.
