I hear what you're saying and I sort of agree, but there is still an asthetical pleasure in rat look and MY bike needs to please MY eyes. Of course nothing beats the real deal shed find, but that's not what I bought unfortunately. So choice parts are fair enough if they tie in with the overall theme imo. I think vintage bikes deserve vintage parts so that where I'll go with it.
