There have been a few threads on the casings of the CdV's over in the 650B list and on iBob. Some people have found that the beads won't seat and others have mentioned minor flat spots. The common fix is to over-inflate the tires until the beads seat or the flat spot pops out, then deflate to preferred riding pressure. - Jim "have had no problems on mine..." -- Jim Edgar [EMAIL PROTECTED] Cyclofiend Bicycle Photo Galleries - http://www.cyclofiend.com Current Classics - Cross Bikes Singlespeed - Working Bikes Get your photos posted: http://www.cyclofiend.com/guidelines "Maybe a bike, once discarded, pines away year after year for the first hand that steered it, and as it grows old it dreams, in its bike way, of the young roads." -- Robert McCammon, "Boy's Life" --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
