My personal bike which is going in the jig next week -

My preference would be to outfit this bike with vintage French components, with Suntour making a close second. But I have too many requests for more bikes just like this, so I decided to outfit it with modern Campy. This bike is more of tourer than you are thinking of, but designed around the Grand Bois Cyprés tire.

Do I have to explain why?
