Before I go and spend some money, assuming I am going to use BB7s. This would be the BB7 road, not MTB iteration wouldn't it? I will be using Ultegra shifters.

Would 160 front and rear be ok? Somewhere, I thought there was mention of 140 out back.

Yes, would be road with Ultegra shifters, cable pull would be wrong on the mtb ones

I went 160 front and rear. And then changed the BB7s for V-Twins because I just couldn't get on with BB7s. Others disagree with that conclusion of course.
