*Just* installed some 700x38 Gravelking Sk's on a project bike.
Haven't had a chance to ride it yet but they seem like a nice product,
especially for the price.
Measured in at 35.5 on some old Super Champion rims.

Some good suggestions coming in!
I'm VERY interested in the Barlow Pass in the endurance casing.
Aesthetically speaking, the RH tires can't be topped. But...I think I might
go with the Gravelkings when it comes time.

Schwalbe Marathon Racers come in a 38, which will be more like a 36 or so

they ride very nicely, and they last. The only other tire I had that lasted
like these is the Big Ben raceguard ones. I ride mine @35-40 rear, 30-35

38mm Barlow Pass fit fine with fenders on my 62cm Sam with sidepull

i swapped out dura-ace barends for silver1 (downtube) shifters on my homer
without issue. totally straightforward. if you do so and are looking to
rehome the shimanos, i'll take 'em off your hands!
in my experience, you can't go wrong with the 38mm
Ben:
I would certainly change the brake cables. If the housings look ok, leave them
(especially since changing them would require losing that nice tape/twine job).
Brake cables fail; housings just get rusty and old.
If the shifter cables look good, you can probably leave them in place. Look
You will love the That bike - hard not to. It just works.

The demo Sam Hilborne was up on the Riv site this morning and I bought it.
Should be here in about two weeks and I am pretty excited. I have never
bought a bike I have never sat on before, so this is a test and a little
nerve racking. I will post photos when it arrives and after I modify it
Thanks to this group for all of the advice and parts!
