Saddle, BB and headset came today. I'm taking a punt on the saddle front, bought a non-brooks leather saddle.
Quality looks to be good, but its as hard as nails. I think my bum might have been spoiled with the thinner leather of my B17 champion special. A few coats of neatsfoot oil will happen before I ride it I think.
Once I get the seatpost I've got everything I need (baring the rack) to build it as a functioning bike. So i might build up to see how I like it before I take it off to be painted.
