Wanted to have classic steel frame and this is probably one of the most affordable options available. Bike rides beautifully and I personally like the neo-retro looks of it. Paint job of the frame was not very nice, all the chrome plated parts had to be scraped off from paint before building it. Otherwise frame is ok for the price.

Hi John,this was actually quite difficult task, but ones I found right parts installation was easy. With that particular Miche headset one wouldn't know it's actually threaded fork Parts: -BBB Adapter-Ahead Extender BHP-20 / BHP-21,silver/1", this is probably the only adapter which will give you a clean and sturdy conversion. -1” ahead stem spacers (black in the picture) -shim (under the stem clamp) 25.4 mm --> 28.6 mm(1 inch to 1-1/8 inch) which I happened to have. hope this helps
