That looks like a really nice trip!

Looks like really good imo. I prefer the red paintjob though.
If it ends up around the price of the Polyvalent I'd say good value too.
And sensible tyre options for the vertically challenged.

Front mech?
I'm using a stx mtb front mech on my own and an old shimano road one on the GF's bike with a 38/24. Haven't had a problem with either..
Should mention they are 28,6 mm band-ons, so adjustment to height is no biggie. -
I'd go for sub-compact cranks and a bigger casette.
I ride with a 40/28 mtb crankset and a 12-36 casette - hardly ever use the 28T at the front, but when I do, I appreciate it very much.
Swapping out a modern shimano crank is easy, when you have the tools - no need to worry about that. -
Yeah, I guess that's why they invented S&S couplers..
I can add that to the list of reasons to get one of the fancy coupled steel tandems from JD Tandems at some point ;) -
Sounds like a very good trip. Scenery and the bike looks very good.
Wouldn't mind doing something similar with the GF and the tandem. -
What a gorgeous thing! And sizewise looks just right for @Hulsroy.

Looks like a Pelago Commuter rack in the medium size.
I've carried 25 liters of wet potting soil on mine. It was quite flexy, but nothing broke.
That's understandable !
