Yeah, sure! Just gotta get a new cable for the front brakes... forgot to mention that little defect (it's frayed right at the handle, if you pull it too hard it will break).

It's actually easier than it looks, just takes a little practice. I take colored glass of the appropriate shape, frame it in U shaped tracked lead, and solder it together with all the various loops and curly things in their respective places (these are made of the same tracked lead, they need to be shaped with pliers) :).
