I plan to use the top half of the seat tube so that I can adjust the fit on my seat post for 'no play'. The wheel is 14MM axle, 48 spoke, 110 psi.

Looks identical to the rear triangle I used. Are you going to bother shortening the stays? I probably would have left them, but wanted to show how it could be done.

Hey, I have the same hat!

Cheers.

Yes, I plan to shorten the stays. It's all about the looks! Actually I'm looking forward to gaining the experience by doing. I also plan to add a horizontal cross bar 24" long on the top bar, so I can attach my lights.

As you can see I need to learn how to use my camera a little better.

Can't say that about your use of the grinder, though.
From the looks of those parts, you seem to be a master! :)
