The bike does look lovely, though I have to pull you up on one thing.
You say that with this bike the down tube shifters are closer to you than bar end ones. That is only possible if manage to ride the bike whilst sat inside the front triangle. You may be a contortionist and this how you roll of course.
You could have just said you prefer down tube shifter which is a fine valid statement, and also not complete bullshit. (Sorry I'm correcting a paper at the mo and I'm on an intensive BS removal run)
