Few years old, but it's going to get resurrected into touring again. Got another additional bag I use on the back now as well. An Ortlieb rack pack (m) in yellow.

Only thing I have changed since then are the tyres and mudguards. Oh and bartape. Now has Schwalbe Marathon Extreme's, Honjo Koken Le Peons and Brooks leather tape. I really rate all three, they are some of the best bike purchases I have made.
I don't have any with the tape but have these ones of the guards. I have taken the racks off once on a tweed ride and it looks so sweet. But day to day it has the rear rack with a $35 bigW basket/bag and no front rack.

Swapped my derailleurs and v-brakes onto my girlfriends bike...disc brakes seem ok but I really like the Rohloff Speedhub...

I've found my Rohloff to be an acquired taste but am now better able to enjoy it.
I found not the weight an issue like so many but more the noisy racket in the gears over seven when coasting.
The more I ride it, the less I notice it.
Not because its getting quieter but just my ears adjusting I think.
I see you've your trailer nuts on.
Any issue with the axle moving under braking when the trailers on?
