In this video I'll be restoring a 90's era Nishiki Katmandu. It's an excellent Tange cromoly steel frame with matching fork and a funky paint job.

Either that or put more matching orange call-outs, like pedals and seat post clamp or chainstay protector.
May need a longer bolt and/or enlarging hole on rack stays.
Personally I think Cantilever brakes look better. I've come too appreciate how much more adjustment they offer over V brakes. I also prefer separate shifters and brake levers just because they are more flexible. You can swap between cantilever and V brakes, do a 1x without a dummy shifter, or play with different shifter options. For this build, if you wanted to swap to a 1x8-11 for example or even a 2x or 3x you're stuck swapping shifters and levers. That's my take on it anyway.
