Any changes I do will be fully reversable. I plan to just build an entirely alternate handlebar setup with different levers and cables so I can put it back to original spec easily if I sell it.
Nice looking Cdale. Personally I would keep any changes to minimum and look for a bigger frame. While the exposed seatpost does not look too extreme when you consider the extended seattube you have another 2" of your post showing. How is the standover?
