• I wouldn’t worry too much if you’re just 55kg, nor would I waste a nice 80s set of Campag wheels on just commuting. I’ve been riding Miche Xpress on Conti 4 Seasons 28mm for 3 years on the cobbled, shitty streets of Edinburgh and had no issues. Paid £130 for em from W*ggle. I’m 76kg on a good day.

  • I agree with this. You could build a retro looking wheelset that you don't need to worry about. Even if you used 80s rims, 36 stainless spokes on new hubs with sealed bearings will be bombproof. 28mm tyres will save your ass and wrists, and help protect the rims from knocks.
