Here's my Bregalad in its current form. With recent swap out of that HEAVY Wald 137 to the half version of the "racing" basket. So, much faster now ;) I should paint it orange to make it the fastest basket. Also, a swap late last year from Nitto Noodles to Nitto Dirt Drops (Rm-013). The bars still need to be wrapped. Oh, also TRP RRL brake levers -love those! My only "don't skimp on the pimp" suggestion for you.
If you think you'll need lights then consider a dynohub set-up. I can't recall the gearing, but know it's 62-63 gear inches. It works well for me along the New England coast line. I've climbed up short, punchy 13% grades w/ it, but wouldn't want to do that for a metric or full century w/ 6,000+ elevation. It's seen many miles total. Many commuter rides, general errands, a few centuries each year.
Even after purchasing a smooth as hot butter ti bike, this is still to go bike in my bike barn.
Ack! Ack! Hopefully the image comes through correctly. It's showing as upside down on the upload, yet normal on my viewer. Anyhow if upside down, well, that's just the kind of bike it really is. Defies gravity and everything else!
This hasn't lowered or increased my average MPH. The just ride pace is when I get there.
Enjoy the ride! Stay well!

- What would the original Sugino crankset gearing look like? What would Grant's preferred set up be?
- What about rear cog(s)? 16t, 17t?

i dont think there is a wrong way to build it other than the chainline question. i went with a dos freewheel in the back on a phils flip flop hub and its plenty of range for me.
heres a pic of how i setup mine, https://photos.app.goo.gl/YLVqsKY5kNJqPQ9j6
