Thanks everyone for all the good ideas.
I’m now thinking I might try the Ezy system from MKS.
Questions for those in the know:
What is the difference between Ezy and Ezy Superior? Is it just choice of
pedals in the respective lineups?
Which of the Clipless Ezys are recommended?
Thanks!

e below SH, Drop will have
more significance.
John Hawrylak comfortable on 44cm RH Radonnuer bar at or +10mm of SH
and rotated about 25deg down for the small bump, but thinks a 42 or 40 may
be better

I suggest you measure your AHH and Breezer as I suggested. This will give
you a good idea of how much each change on the AHH goes to meeting the
distance you have on the Breezer. Your Noddle bars are already short
reach, 96mm comes to mind changing bars may not give you much.

inspired me to try wrapping them.

= 83cm (just a guess) and the Breezer
STA is 73°, the AHH is setback by 21mm vs the Breezer. You probably can
move the AHH full forward to make up the seat tube setback

, with better bike posture, I have noticed a long top tube does not
cause me undue problems. Just something to consider - or not.

That's a very sensible bike, and super versatile with the second wheelset.
It's cool to see a fat bike here! I never realized the chainstays on the
Pugsley were that long, that's a great callout. Maybe it makes sense since
Surly advertised it as a "fat tire touring bike?" I've got a Wednesday
Thanks for kind words, doremus1.

better they'd be with newly installed housing and cable. And now I see
there are all sorts of new (to me) specialty housing and cables on which to
spend money...Thanks for the replies.

Of course that requires removing my years old, many layered shellac over
cloth tape
Just curious.

BTW, another little 'pro' tip
When you put your bike up, release tension on RD by shifting to the end so
that spring is relaxed. For sure, I have no empirical evidence this extends
spring life / strength, but it can't hurt, right?

Robert, I've been shifting with XT M760 RR on JD bikes for many years. No
derailleur envy or interest in experimenting with other systems. I
collected them and so very happy I did. They were plentiful and reasonably
priced...until they weren't.
Grant is now building RR rear mechs, too, as I bet
for riding the rollers.
They'redefinitely on the modern end of the spectrum and I think roughly
250g lighter than the Brooks. Could be worth a look!
