@Tijs is doing a tour of Germany and dropped by. He stayed for a day and helped fit the 46/32 double. I had been postponing it for ages, but with the prospect of loaded climbing I really had to. It was a bit of a puzzle getting the right spacer stack but we figured it out in the end. Very happy he was there, there's a good chance I'd have binned the lot in frustration halfway through.
Which means the bike is now finished, so I have to take it apart for paint before the weather makes painting outside impossible. Current thinking is just going for white as the fork has white speckles. Maybe I should do the stays in the same blue as the fork?
Also very happy with the bags and how they performed on the two days I joined Tijs. Although I might go for a smaller bar bag and a pec-deck like solution with a Carradice-shaped bag on the back.
