Looks like a fun rider, I have a few bikes set up the same way. A roadster is next on my list.
 
I'd love to see some photos. I like these skinny tires. This one has a 24t front ring and 9t rear, so it's easy to pedal and get going quickly. This is the third set of wheels I've built for this type of riding. I dig it.
 
5'11"

But I have long legs and want to get a full leg stroke when riding. These bikes can be set up to go fast and far if you pay attention to gearing and cockpit fitting. I ride 6.5 miles to work everyday and the way home is 3 miles of climbing. So I need the full leg power.

Wheels?

What size are those wheels / tires? That looks like it would be a great ride.
REC
 
700 rims

This is the third set I've laced into Morrow hubs (the fronts are high flange 60s vintage). I am trying to somewhat create 28" look with modern practicality. I really love the ride.
