Any thoughts on this? It just misses the acceptable range on Sheldon's chart...

Thanks to the both of you.
And yeah, a donation is due. Not for this particular piece of advice, but nevertheless...

It will work, the chart is pretty conservative at both ends. If I were running 28s, I'd try to find a rim with a 21mm internal width and then settle for a 19 because nobody makes 21s for rim brakes.

2010 is going to be all about wide rims, but only "wide" in the sense of 23mm overall width for road racing and >35mm for XC MTBs.

Okay, now certainly I owe a £1! Thanks again!

Formatting Help

Don't worry about formatting, just type in the text and we'll take care of making sense of it. We will auto-convert links, and if you put asterisks around words we will make them bold.

Tips:

Create headers by underlining text with ==== or ----

To *italicise* text put one asterisk each side of the word

To **bold** text put two asterisks each side of the word

Embed images by entering:

That's the hard one: exclamation, square brackets and then the URL to the image in brackets.

* Create lists by starting lines with asterisks

1. Create numbered lists by starting lines with a number and a dot

For syntax highlighting, surround the code block with three backticks:

Just like Github, a blank line must precede a code block.
