Some progress was made over the weekend mainly by bolting on various parts. Made it rideable with gears + rear brake and got my position sorted (matched to the regular work bike) and trimmed the steerer down.
Quickly realised when ragging it up and down the street a bit that basing my gear ratios on a heavy Bullit with an IGH full of drag was probably not the best idea. Will assess properly when fully built and done a few loaded rides but think the 32t will probably need changing.
Still need to sort out front brake (replace hose) which should be fun. Then swap saddle out for something non-race and figure out some kind of cargo carrying system/bag.
