Howdy folks, I have a friend in need of a rear wheel for his Sam Hillborne, the Velocity synergy rim has a 6" section of flare that's noticible braking, as he described it. I actually sold him this bike a few years back. He's in Pittsburgh so if anyone in the area has something all the better. He's currently considering having the wheel rebuilt with a new Velocity Atlas rim but my suggestion was to look for a different rear wheel to get away from the 6/7 speed freewheel on the original. At my guessing $80 for the rim + $100 for the labor he's 2/3 of the way to the price of decent used wheelsets I've bought in the past. He wants to set the Sam up as more of a dedicated rando-ish build, so I also urged him to consider a dynamo front wheel but now I'm just steering this away from what I beleive is a tight grad school budget.
I think that covers it all. Thanks J in WV -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
