@spotter - sneaky! Didn't see you take the snap :) I've now increased offset to 50mm for all sizes - to give a medium trail of around 65mm. It'll also aid toe-clearance especially on the smaller sizes (esp. with tyre size increasing to 40c next year). @edscoble is bang-on regarding low-trail specific geo - they really are designed to specifically allow for front load carrying. Which is fine if it's a tourer/randonneur - with the CdF being such a versatile bike we wouldn't want to pigeonhole it too much. Have also added high-mount barrel eyelets (Nitto/VO spec) to give further front rack mounting options (the smaller rando style racks seem to be a popular option atm). Anything missed that you guys would like to be incorporated?
