I have a couple pair of Canari MTB shorts but don't wear them because they don't hang right on me.  If I don't wear regular cycling bib shorts, I wear Dickies 15" inseam shorts.

I have a CC with SKS and don't have trouble changing tires.  I use 32mm Panaracer Pasela TGs.

Before purchasing, I test rode both the CC and the LHT.  The CC fitted my needs better as a commuter, backup road bike, light tourer and randoneurring. The CC seemed livelier on the test rides.  If I was going to go with fully loaded front and rear panniers, I would have went with the LHT.  The LHT has a longer head tube and seats you a little more upright. 

I found this forum while I was researching triple cranks.  I'm thinking of changing the stock crank for a 105 triple.
