steve has now picked up the frame and it's being painted. should be ready next week. ended up going with a slightly darker tone of purple with a touch of sparkle in it. the regular RAL tones were a bit too "i'm sorry i exist" for my liking, but luckily he also offered some more vibrant powderfx.co.uk colours too. this is mostly to rust-proof the frame, was never a fan of repainting but don't think i really have a choice here as the tubing is thin.
after messing around with some bootleg igleheart options for the fork, i came to my senses and grabbed the pioggia steel edition from condor . it matches pretty closely to the indy fab original both by specs and aesthetics. it's not the lightest but should be well-suited for commuting and lugging the groceries, perhaps even touring at some point. been really happy with how my other tange infinity fork rides.
