Toshi, Haven't ridden yet, w/ this set and tires; I'd pulled my Synergy/Conti combo over from the Bomba to check it all out before buying the bits and building up the wheelset. I built the wheels this past weekend, then mounted the Hetres the other night. Mounting NeoMotos on the Synergies was easy, mounting the Contis wasn't. So, I was hopeful that the A23 and Hetres would be at least easier than the Conti/Synergy combo. Hate to say, nope... it wasn't. I managed it with only one lever, but, it took a good while and some wrangling. Someone w/ more skill than me, maybe it wouldn't have been so hard/taken so long, but... However, end result: I think the rims are nice, and I think I'll like the tires. Will be trying it out soon. Will report back. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
