Nothing wrong with the Alex rims. I think they're a great deal. I like the colored spoke nipples, too. It's a complicated story involving the drive train, not worth going into. But zero issues with the Alex rims that came stock on my 52cm Clementine. (RM18 on the 650B). On Friday, August 11,

I have a set of Deore v-brakes that will are available. I believe I have a set of Shimano v-brake levers as well. I'll check the parts bin and let you know tomorrow. Dan > On Aug 11, 2017, at 3:12 PM, 'Mark in Beacon' via RBW Owners Bunch > wrote: > > +1

+1 on the Atlas recommendation. Due to issues with my Clementine's stock Alex wheelset, I upgraded to Riv's Atlas/Velocity. About a week later I hit a pothole at night at speed and the rear rim got toasted. But I was able to get home on it and if it were something not as robust, the situation

You guys are all really coming through! I'm replying off list to everyone, but a huge thanks to the bunch. Adam, what'd your friend have to do to destroy the A23s? Paul in ATL On Friday, August 11, 2017 at 3:38:21 PM UTC-4, dougP wrote: > > Paul: > > I've got a 24 tooth, 74 BCD chainring you

Paul: I've got a 24 tooth, 74 BCD chainring you can have. Send me your address & I'll drop it in the mail. Fits into a small envelope so it may go as regular mail. No bolts, unfortunately. dougP On Friday, August 11, 2017 at 8:30:29 AM UTC-7, Paul Clifton wrote: > > I'm one of the folks

Paul, I would go with the Atlas rims. They *might* be overkill, but they aren't crazy heavy or anything, just good, confidence-inspiring, rim-brake mountain touring rims. I have a set of A23's on my cross bike and I wish they were wider. My friend destroyed a pair of A23's, just be better safe
