So, updates.
I mistakenly bought 5 mm brake hoses before discovering Hope used 6 mm lines for their early brakes. A little while later and I've got the rear plumbed in, just waiting on the Stridsland fork (and available mounting point) for the front brake.
I found the accompanying XT shifter for the rear mech and also got a bit medieval on the 2.35 rear tyre in the name of clearance. They're part worn and came with the wheelset, so I'll go for a 2.1 when the time comes to replace them.
Tomorrow's weather looks good for a little shakedown and maybe some bike tag.
