Well I'm half way there as it stands - have downtube shifters for front and rear but haven't quite got around to converting back to a double yet. Liking it so far - I like the minimal faff to go singlespeed or swap bars down the line and the DA shifters themselves are lovely.
Hahah same, very similar trajectory. I'm hopeless at making my bikes work the way I want them too AND be pretty though.
