I am not 100% on the build since seeing how nice it now is
Certainly wont be cobbled together anymore.
I do have some things I have been squirrelling away for a long while for it so these will go on.
I did also have some things for my other Mercian but I think that will be back in the loft mothballed once again once this King returns home.
Like all my bikes it will always be a rider and so needs to be built to be versatile. Though I may not use it as my gravel bike for a while
Initial thoughts are Stronglight triple chainset,
9 speed Dura Ace downtube shifters
Mafac racer brakes and levers
Nitto stem and B36 rando bars
Honey Brooks saddle
Brown Bar tape
I need to lace my Shimano 600 Ultegra rims to a set of Wolber GT2 Gentleman rims
Just some initial thoughts.
