New model - "Bro-Tour plus"

It has been about a decade since I have built myself a road frame -this one is mine. I had the idea that after trash talking disc brakes on a road bike for so many years it was maybe time for me to give in and get a bit more modern. Along with the disc brakes I'll be getting bigger tires -700x35 and lower gears. I'm 70 years old now and don't want to give up on riding the steep hills and crappy pavement-my body is saying to me "If you want to keep doing that crap you'll have to do it on a bike that works with your aging skeleton. This is the Bro-Tour plus, the big tire version of the Bro-Tour. It's still a road bike and not a gravel bike pretending to be a road bike. It has enough room for my favorite gravel tire but I doubt I'll be using it for that type or riding. I'm possibly taking this bike to France in three weeks- that is if I get it built. -Wish me luck.....I'll need it. I have a lot of your frame to build first.
