I finished my project... it rides surprisingly well. Only bits I needed to buy were a new seat post and a quill stem adapter (which is rather ugly tbh), rest was parts bin stuff... all in all I'm pleased with it.
Solid build. I don't think the ahead converter looks ugly at all. You have repurposed a modern product into your build. Why not! I bet it's more comfortable too!
