No man, you can big my bike up as much as you like.I hope you don't mind me hijacking this pic, but it just looks right, those forks with the snowflakes, even down to the straddle rods, its looks mechanical cool.
I think the Fork lends itself well to a steel frame, i have been looking for this fork in the right length, to do the exact same on a Dave Yates for years, originally noticing it on a custom painted Whiskey Town racer.

I took your pic advice.mate I loved mine, I was so relieved, when we had something we could offer people when we couldn't get Bontrager frames.
Its cool, like your Schwinn, but from a totally different time.
And if I could be so bold, i would use the above pic for the main botm entry, its shows your work better than any positive comment.
