Nice. I converted an old Raleigh Super Record for commuting use, and put a rack and makeshift panniers on it. It's single speed, front brakes only, but it rides very nicely for my flat, short commute. I passed on a nice set of used Cannondale panniers this weekend for $40... your build is making me regret that.

I need to round up a front rack now!
