2) Gearing: The smaller wheel has to spin 8% faster to go the same road speed. But that’s no problem, just change to a harder gear. Changing your gear works because the wheel radius is just one lever in a system of levers between your foot and the road. Crank length, chain ring and cog sizes are the other levers. The 650C wheel is 8% smaller, so just choose an 8% higher gear. For example, install a cassette starting with an 11 tooth instead of 12 tooth cog to get 8% more gear. (Such a cassette might also have a 23 instead of a 25; that’s an 8% difference too.)

brakes are 105 5600 (i think) that i had in my spares.

11-28 cassette is ultegra 6700 and we've got the same series crankset coming. bb cups are in.

wheels are pretty lush. girlfriend preferred them to the visions shown in the above photo.
front needs rebuilding though. too long to go in to now.

new seat clamp and kalloy aero post.
the stem is system ex. i'm in two minds about it. the gap and the protruding bolt on the underside aint pretty.
the bars are fantastic, rose race attack. they're 75mm by 120mm and spot on for her at 36cm wide.
finishing kit is all a bit heavy but what the hey.

saddle is just for the photo.
want to wrap white tape, white saddle. ideally find some of these white hoods cheap.
white cables too.

thanks.
would bladed spokes be ruled out without keyhole-ing?

this beast must have been through 10 people in the last few years!

spot on. with guards and rack, ideal city bike.

sold!

wheelbuilders! spoke masters! keepers of the trueth!
i have a lovely wheel with a cracked hub.

is there any reason why i can't rebuild it with a new hub that has the same diameter?

will the lack of exposed nipples or bladed spokes be an issue (see the extra cutout on the spoke hole on the inside of the flange)?
