I look forward to seeing it finished!

Steerer has been extended so I was able to install the fork; it will be cut down once I figure out the amount of spacers I want to run.

This is looking awesome. Totally my kind of build. More ano = more awesome.

I feel the same. Loving the purple! What kind of stem and seatpost are those?

I have a soft spot for this build I have to admit
Love the rims especially and the chainset! Super cool

I have one. in red.
It is in no way as good of a condition as yours.

It wasn't stock when I got it, in fact it was mostly green having lived outside, but everything was there and it was stripped ready for rebuilding.
That hasn't happened, yet.

Your's looks rather lovely to be honest.
Amount of spacers is easy to calculate. If you are old enough to rememeber them originally you will need at least 4. If you are old enough to have been able to afford one originally, you will 6. If you aren't old enough for either and just buying in to the hype of the 90's, you don't get spacers, you are to young to ride it.

Thank you! I mentioned the stem earlier; it's a Contec. Seatpost is by the same company as well. The model is "Brut" for both.

Judging by the beautiful Klein in your photo, I can see why you appreciate it. Is that yours? And thank you!

Sound reasoning on the spacer choices

And thank you; glad you appreciate how it's coming along!
Do you have any photos of yours?
