Soma “three speed 2” bars are the greatest mustache ever! And they use
regular brake levers, so you can toss those road levers in the rubbish. And
run regular thumb shifters, and flip them over if you want. They’re great.

I don't know if there's a front derailleur to fix the clearance issue, but
looking at your photo from above, it looks like you need some more

I'm a little confused and curious, having never seen a 6mm threaded hole on
