Helpful thread - apologies for a slight hijack, but having just become the owner of the above, I was intending to convert this to fgss so as to reduce daily wear & tear and change the wheels to some deep v's/phils on clinchers (mainly because the above has tubs) and not sure how robust those GP4's would be. An alternative would be to rebuild the wheels with open pros and run it geared, using it pretty much as it stands....any additional thoughts?
