Good point. I've got R8000 calipers which are compatible for 28mm outer rim width so that shouldn't be an issue. Do you think the tyre clearance will be ok?
The alternative is the R45 rim – 17.9/25mm. Whilst I prefer the profile of the AR46 it might be a safer bet than waiting 6 weeks for a wheelset that might be too tight?

Hi all. I'm wanting to order an LB rim brake wheelset – preferably the AR46 – but have some concerns re. tyre clearance on my '04 Merckx Team SC frame.
I currently have 25mm GP5000's mounted on Cero AR30's (17.9mm inner/22mm outer) measuring at 27.5mm width. This leaves me ~8mm clearance either side at the brake track and ~4mm clearance from the tyre to chainstay.
The AR46 rim is 21mm inner/28mm outer. According to the LB 'Actual Widths' chart GP5000's will actually come up smaller than my current wheels at 26.54mm.
Whilst the clearance from the braketrack to the chainstay will reduce from 8mm to 4mm the clearance from the tyre to the chainstay should actually increase to ~5mm clearance.
This should be fine, right?

Arrived safely in Amsterdam. Quality looks great, looking forward to trying it out. Thanks @Chopsicle!

I checked the chain wear and it’s got loads of life left! I swapped over the cassette from my wheel and it’s still making the grinding noise in the higher gears. Also noticed a slight noise/vibration when coasting on each revolution of the flywheel which is a bit concerning.
Will have to wait and see what Wahoo say... Fingers crossed for a quick fix, I want to get riding!
Charge Juicer up for sale, collection only in NW3. Selling as moving country.
• Size Small, 52cm ctc.
• Shimano Tiagra 9-speed triple groupset
• Shimano WH-R500 Wheelset (plenty of life left on rims)
• Shimano long reach brake calipers
• Jack Brown Mile Muncher 25.5c Tyres (great condition, ~100km wear)
The good:
Fun little bike to ride! It hasn't been used in a few months but is running fine, gears indexed and shift well. Plenty of life left on brake pads. Has mounts for mudguards, and I reckon you could fit 28c tyres. Serviced shortly before it went into storage.
The bad:
The seatpost is seized, I haven't tried very hard to get it out but it's not budging for me at the moment.
Quite a lot of scratches from being locked up - I've photographed the worst areas on the top tube and brifters.
