Thanks. I assumed the cable guides would run down the down tube and along the chain stay. I'm fine with them on top though after the initial 5 seconds of sadness. It's a chuffin cable strapped to a tube after all.

I'm going to message him now and ask about the reasoning for not supporting the stays before I go and pick it up.
Nice project! I've got an earlier Randonneur so am watching what you do with great interest.
RE those top tube cable guides; they're up top on my unmodified frame because there's a pump peg below the top tube. If the cables were down below they'd get in the way. Also, I find it useful having them out of the way for shouldering the bike up steps/over stiles & gates CX style. It's a good thing!
