Ah thanks :) Yeah I do like the look of the swept back bars on hers, but I think if it were mine I'd go with drops and down tube shifters. It's also gained a lovely old brooks saddle since that photo was taken, but still needs larger tyres, guards and a rando rack, when funds allow.
Interesting about the different models. I actually haven't done any research on the bike so I'd be keen to know what you find out!

Oh wow, so that's what it should look like! Lovely build - apparently mine was set up with a flat bar like this when the original owner (not the seller) last rode it.
The Royal/Randonneur thing was a difference in build spec rather than frame, I believe - will do some more digging on that
