My point is stress is stress and the quality of the wheel build will show
up no mater which type of stress you put on the wheel.

700x25 is the new 23mm tire since research has shown that 25mm tires are
just as fast as a 23mm. One of my riding buddies is riding on 28mm
tubeless clincher tires and he claims they feel as fast and comfortable
as a 25mm tubular. Wheels and tires have come a LONG way in the last 2
years

700 is a touch bigger in diameter than the old 27. 1-1/4 is about 25%
wider than a 25mm tire. The off-road tires I'll be riding for the

Just because you're not a cyclist doesn't mean you're not stressing
the spokes. If you weren't stressing the spokes, you could ride a 20 or
24 spoke wheel :)

, it might now apply to me. so far the
wheel is fine. the last one lasted 2 years with spokes that caught rot

As others have said. Clean the bike chain, gears, and derailleurs with a
degreaser, preferably one that is NOT water based. Simple Green is
fairly good, just keep it away from paint and the brake surface. If you
do happen to get some on the brake surface, clean the surface with a
clean rag
They can be lubed, but if the cable has rusted inside the housing, lube
won't help.

A 15yo hybrid is not likely to have plastic coated cables. Especially
since it has low end Altus/AceraX components.

Yes, Altus is high end compared to Wal-feces, but it's still low-end for
what Cannondale offers. Cannondale is one of the premier aluminum frame
makers, and has been for the last 20 years, but that doesn't make the

If you're not breaking spokes due to power, you'll be ok with the normal
gauge as spokes are stressed mostly when you put power into the crank.
Weight generally only stresses the rim and hub as the spokes can
distribute the weight amongst themselves. Ask your 10 minute wheel
builder if he is
