Piaw, thanks for the comments and pictures! Looks like you're having loads
of fun.
I would likely be running downtube shifters and a 2x with a long cage

Thanks for the review! As a daily drop-bar Sam rider, I'm well accustomed

Piaw,
Thank you for your review. You mention fitting nominally 40mm wide tires
