Took it on my usual 25-mile loop today (couldn't do it last week due to terrible hangover). Apart from the front derailer coming loose within the first 500 yards, necessitating a walk home and re-starting the ride, it all went well.
A couple of observations:
Bars could go up a bit. I've got a 70mm Technomic but I reckon that's too short - I'm searching for a 100mm one.
Saddle nose needs to go down a bit.
28c Randos with mudguards designed for 23c was a bit optimistic... occasionally the front mech will shove the guard into the wheel, so the guard needs more trimming to clear it.
The gearing's about right for me. In the future I think I could do with a smaller granny for really long climbs, and the derailer can definitely take it.
