I would go up to 28:24 with normal spoke pattern to be safe for 70kg rider.

It will take as low as 23c but you could also use this as a cyclocross rim.

Would assume at least a 35c.

Yeah, 36h on Arches should hold my 109kg and don't flex heh.

I have 20 spoke wheels on my road bike and I do actually hop potholes etc. instead of going round them all the time (not claiming this is big or clever), and I weigh 65kg, and they're fine. I've also crashed it a lot. Still fine.

I have 3 spokes in my tool box. One is bent, but I've not had true any of my bikes wheels. Still fine, no flex, so holes.

Mavic Ksyrium/Aksium?
I have Ksyrium Equipes and they're hard as nails. Not one true required in 2 years of LA riding over fire roads and all sorts.

Got the choice between 600 Ultegra a sach new success full group-set but with this DA seat-post dark 600 u will fit the biek gladly. (IMO)

The the brake hole was useless, the brake was not even wearing the brake band.

Track mystery forks.

Edit... Ahaa now realise that was not your fork - but you were illustrating a point....

Nice. NJS Export?

although there is one, same colour and size on njs, found this one on the 'bay...a bit of haggling and she was mine.

surely to be a contentious build though, as I am not going down the njs route...more of an aesthetics build planned

New tyres, bartape and stem slammage for the Merckx

wearing a 32c RiBMo on the back now and also a Thomson layback, still not 100% set on tyres. saddles gonna go too. set up in 48x19 fun gear for now, which feels a little odd with layback and bullhorns. will either change to 50 or 52x 19 or just chuck on some risers

lush.

Good job you kept those purple Phil's, looks bawwss..

That looks a lot better than I thought it would, nice!
