Relatively inexpenive conversion and it worked great. Not a lightweight, but it was solid and fun. A forum member now has the frameset and built his own gravel bike from it.
This frame was technically too small for me, but i made it work with the riser quill stem.
That looks great! Well im taking the dive now, I bought the bike yesterday. What brake levers did you use for that bike? Im looking for some that work good with cantis.
