surly pacer cable stops
Maybe i'm just a nub or something, but if I was going to build up a Surly Pacer frame, where would the cable stops for the shifters be? I didn't see anything about them on the Surly website...
I wouldn't really want to use down-tube shifters on it, something more along the lines of barend shifters, or STI/Ergo.

If you buy a set of Shimano brifters, or bar-end shifters, included in the box is a pair of downtube stops (with integrated barrel adjusters) that mount on the downtube bosses.

Edit: anyone have a picture of these stops, or if they stand out too much...I don't want something too radical.

They look like this:
And this pic shows them mounted on a Surly LHT frame (identical to the Pacer frame in this respect):
