@mattmadegood
in my opinion, there is isn't great deal wrong with the archie. tweaks i would make:
1 1/8 head tube
27.2 seat tube
slightly raked beefy fork
gussets
no bridge in chainstays.
lengthen the cut in the frame ends (like what jono did).
people's brake setups are so personal i think brake bosses etc might be a waste of time. people can just use clamp on mounts etc. so no cable mounts etc either.
