This is awesome! I have exactly this frame and going to do a resto-mod build with it. One question please - what is the clearance like for a 38T chainring. Did you have to use spacers to move it out at all? I would have thought 38 would be super tight on this frame!
Thanks so much, all you bikes look awesome!
