i was actually going to not use the seat post-bb connection point. I am planning on running a channel along where the fender would mount. I could easily bend up some pipe and put it in the other place. I'd like to come up with a bent channel

well, I tried the leaf spring, I didn't like it and I'm looking for another option. Once I cut the leaf down to fit in the frame, it didn't look right, there wasn't enough curve. back to the drawing board. I need to find a curved piece of channel, like a fender but a bit stronger. any ideas??

it can be an obsession! You gotta post pix of your project :) is that a hairdresser's tattoo?

Re: Mr. Belvedere: My First Build Nice choice to copy. I love your inspiration. you're not going to find the tires you want in a 700c. You should be looking for a 26" wheel. You'll probably need to make some slight frame adjustments to make it wide enough.
