Paul Thumbie mount: black preferred
Brooks B17 antique brown or black
Ergon cork grips new or slightly used
Brass bell
Blue or black headset spacers (one inch)
Front rack
Crank bolt wrench

Thanks to all who have reached out and/or sold parts for my build.

Regarding the OPs request for "Paul Thumbie mount".  There are three models: Shimano/SRAM/Microshift, two clamp diameters, and they come in left and right.  So I think that makes 18 different combinations.  Which of those 18 possible combos do you seek?  I can sell you a LEFT, Shimano, 31.8mm, if that happens to be the combination you seek.  I would sell it for half-MSRP ($30), plus shipping.  If you want to clamp to the sleeved part of a 26.0mm handlebar, I could also sell you the perfect shimset to enable that.

I seek a Microshift right thumbie for a 22.2 bar. Thanks for asking for clarification Bill.

I've got a new-in-box black B17 Special collecting dust. PM if interested.

I saw that posted but was hoping to find a regular B17 slightly used for under $100. The Special is indeed really nice though with the copper rails and rivets.

Forgive me for the premature earlier posting. I recently sold a frame and due to my misunderstanding had not realized the buyer had committed to purchasing the B17 saddle I had offered to you. The Nitto rack is definitely still available.

Apologies

Gunner,
No worries. I think the M12 is designed for cantilever brakes and I'll be using v-brakes.  I appreciate the post.

Yes, you are correct regarding the M12.  Best of luck in completing your build.

We can close out this thread as I'm set on parts. Thanks to all for the help!
