I'm getting a lot of suggestions for the Dyad from this and other sources.  
Probably going that way.  

Thanks to all,

Thanks for the replies.  I have checked with Riv and with Rich.  Just want 
to see all the options.  I do in fact have a set of 36 hole MA2s and a 
freewheel hub, but I'm concerned about durability under my 200 pound 
weight.  

Thanks again,
Jim

 I can't imagine the rims would be easy or inexpensive to come by as NOS, 
 but you could probably find a decent used wheelset on Ebay and etc. 

 Bonus points for freewheel rear and/or SunTour XC 9000 front hub.

[RBW] Wheels for 97 Riv Road

2015-08-20 Thread James in Scottsdale
Suggestions?  I need a new set of wheels for my Riv.  Being somewhat 
portly, I am concerned with strength.  Since they are for a vintage Riv, 
I'm concerned with looks.  any ideas about a good compromise?

Thanks
Jim in Scottsdale
