Dugast doesn't make any sense, 'cause I'll be using it for touring, not for competition. Will be Wolber, Clement or maybe period incorrect Challenge.
Straddle wire is long on purpose, to have max. brake shoe to rim (mud) clearance.
I overdid it a bit, maybe. When I put non-aero brake levers on the bike, I may shorten the straddle a bit to the same angle as in the rear.
