Another option is to use V-brake noodles right at the STI levers so the cable routing bends straight down. I use this setup on my Casseroll and it makes significantly more room to put a handlebar bag. Shifting performance is not affected in the slightest.

I should also note that you can run 28mm tires on a Delgado rim, which I am also doing on my bike. I measured ~19mm of interior rim width, which according to the chart on Sheldon's site is acceptable for widths as low as 28mm.
