I finally (finally!) got my Miyata 1000 set up for Gravel Worlds and rode it this morning! After many grand ideas (most of which didn't work out) I ended up staying pretty close to stock; visually the biggest changes are switching to mustache bars and the Shimano Acera rear derailleur.
I need to tweak the saddle height, I'm not convinced about the full toe clips (and I haven't even installed the straps yet!), and I'm already thinking about moving the brake levers inboard, but my (admittedly) short ride this morning gave me hope that I will be able to ride her 150 miles in late August Nebraska heat.
