Hi Kaaaaaandries,
Why not consider a mix of modern and traditional?
My favourite bike is an 18year old Raleigh clubman with 9speed downtube shifters, a 105 rear and front mech. I also use a modern Shimano dual pivot brakeset. The bike marries old and new and is so comfortable with the 531 frame. It is a joy to ride and I set it up for light touring duties.

Gives you an idea how big those other bikes were... Besides, am I the only one who doesnt mind a few cm here or there?
