I like your Northroad suggestion. Noted.
Might want to invest in ratcheting thumb shifters. With 6 speed gearing (likely wide range, you might want to go compact double maybe? 48/36 or something with a chain guard?
I like the idea of Gugie's handlebars, and fenders would definitely fit with 700c...maybe slightly bigger tires.
Odd that only single eyelets in the rear...
LOVE the color.
