I like the RH Radonneur Bars. I set the bar height even or slightly above
the saddle height and use the drops a lot when riding

Do you like drop bars? I heartily recommend the Rene Herse Maes Parallel as
the ultimate road drop bar - shallow drop, moderately long reach, long,
flat ramps, just a hint of flare in the hooks. I use these on both road
bikes and on the drop-barred gravel sand bike.
Now that is odd. I've owned literally a dozen Carradices here in high
desert NM, where, believe me, the sun makes your seal-level high-noon,
mid-summer sun look like twilight -- noonday sunlight on the ocean
boardwalk in Venice, CA on a clear day looks murky in comparison, and I've
seen it. My
I use Banjo Bros bags on mine. Carradice did not survive long in strong sun.
The RBW kevens bag did better but not great. Black Rose gave good service and
looked nice but holds too little. Ymmv

Now for the million dollar question.. what handlebars and saddlebags would

Very nice build. As a fellow '95 Road rider, I share your enthusiasm for
this bike's riding characteristics. 26" was used by RBW a couple of times
to get better geometry in smaller size frames. It works. Hope you enjoy
many miles on yours!

It's a beauty, Adriana! I love the color scheme...like the flags of
Ukraine and Sweden.
Congratulations. May it bring you a lifetime of joy!

Oh...I'm glad it worked out for you and you like the bike! I love the
splash of yellow; it's so cheerful. Matches the buttery smooth ride of
those early Rivendells
Hope you have many happy miles on it.
