[RBW] Velocity Quill experiences?

Thanks to those who replied!  The height of the Wuill maybe be a negative 
factor; have to check. All else seems great.

[RBW] Velocity Quill experiences?

[tc]

I now have a 62 MIT Atlantis frame.  I'm gonna order a new Rich-built 
wheelset for it.  Velocity Quill?  Cliffhanger?  

I'm leaning toward Quill because they fit a wider range of tires, esp. 
narrower ones in case I want to go crazy and fender it.  Also, Quills are 
lighter by a pound, seem to be strong enough (I'm not gonna tour with heavy 
loads).  Jan's article, "Myth 18: Wide Tires Need Wide Rims 
" 
started me on this path.  A chart in that article says a 21mm inside width 
(what the Quill has) should be able to handle a 64mm ((!) tire ... though 
Velocity recommends up to 47...which seems very conservative to me.  I'm 
running Dyads and 2.1 Nano's on my Toyo Atlantis...super combination.  

I won't be putting a 64 tire on a Quill, but will think strongly about the 
55 Antelope Hills.  Also have some 29x2 G-One Speeds to consider.

Anyone have any experience with Quills?

Thanks,
Tom
