Those dropouts are asking for fixed or hub gear.

Thanks, that's the way I'm leaning as well: there's a 6-bolt disc cog (16T) burning a hole in my parts bin. Just need to decide on everything else now: wheels (probably a waste of time converting to 700c), tyres (massive slicks methinks), chainset (42T too low for road?), handlebars (alts/drops?)...

(16T)...(42T too low for road?)

68" with 26" tyres, I'd call that a tad high for a pub bike but not by enough to make changing worthwhile if you already have the 42T ring. I'd probably aim get a 40T otherwise.
