Elegance in simplicity. I dig it.

A couple suggestions, depending on how invested you want to get into it:
-From my own experience, riding one of these without a front brake can get sketchy. You could get a new wheel with a drum brake and not have to weld or braze anything onto your fork.
-Since it already has a rear derailleur, a shifter kit might be nice.

Thank you and great idea on the front brake. As far as the shifter kit is concerned I already ordered one and it’s coming in the mail.
