custom steel with bigger tyres (not too big mind) is the answer to all your Sunday best questions.
Think you're bang on the money there. Lightweight steel frame, carbon fork, 32mm tyres and discs/rim brakes I'm not bothered sounds like a winning combo.
@amey we look forward to seeing you in the motorcycle thread

I think hydro disc is 100x better than rim brakes, but calipers definitely “add character” and are adequate on a summer bike. If I was going full custom (this frame was one that a customer never paid for/collected that fit me) I reckon I would go disc (I’m heavy and Yorkshire is hilly) the ride is a perfect balance between my gravel bike, and my old donohue road bike, (all 3 are 853 with carbon fork)

I genuinely expect this will be the last project, aside from adjustments to existing fleet I’m set. So happy I finally have your approval
