Thanks Patrick, I really upgraded the old Raleigh buying the Phil wheelset that Bob L. listed right after Christmas. I had been rolling on my 30+y-o Zeus/Rigida 27s. Timing was perfect. A guy was looking for a fly rod built by Dwight Lyons and I had one to sell, so I offered the same amount for the wheels and Bob took me up on it. I went from an Ultra 6 to a 7 in the rear, 12-32T, and 19 usable gears 22" to 104". Parigis are all that will fit under my 37mm Honjo fenders, Got my first good ride on it this morning, and on a mile-long descent easily outran my 104" for 45 mph. It was a hoot. I do love my M bars - they have a nice aero spot on them I dug into this morning climbing that mile against a 15mph headwind. I'm spending a lot more time in 80" gear on this wheelset.
