    That's awesome, if I had any bike know how I'd buy a retro frame and fit it with modern running gear, that's a proper looking bike!

    Why? Unless already knackered, the old running gear is perfectly fine and more durable than modern stuff; note how Peanutts bike looks like it has the original bar tape despite many miles!. The old running gear might be lighter too (which helps offset the frame weight.....).
