Same here. Dyad/Aeroheat on three bikes (I swear I didn't intend this): 700x35 for road 650bx42 for road gravel 650bx54 for rough stuff
And I load 'em up up. I weigh ~145 and put a fair amount on the front and back; 36 hole. The Atlas is pretty rim and I think it's a tiny bit wider which might be nice, but don't ding the Dyad for any perceived strength deficiencies, 'cause where aren't any. Another take away is what tires and pressures you plan to run; The tire takes a lot of the brunt of the weight, and with a high enough final tension on your spokes, you should be great!

I weigh 400 lbs and I've been running Dyads (Rich Lesnik built) for three years with zero problems. I don't put in a ton of miles and I like to think I ride pretty "light" for my size so I doubt I've even come close to putting my wheels to any kind of test. The closest I've come was a high speed jump off a curb (operator error....I wouldn't willingly do that) and the only negative from that might have been a spoke that became a little loose, although the wheel remained true. > > > On Wednesday, December 2, 2015 at 8:38:53 PM UTC-6, Kelly wrote: >> >> Well I have he Atlas on my Bombadil, only thing to watch if you like 50's is the width.

Most it'll see is the C&O in the summer. Is the Atlas overkill? I also will commute 20 miles with just my lunch in the saddle bag, so I don't want to be too much of a slug. >>> >>> Thanks, >>> >>> Phil > > -- > You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group. > To unsubscribe from this group and stop receiving emails from it, send an email to rbw-owners-bunch+unsubscr...@googlegroups.com. > To post to this group, send email to rbw-owners-bunch@googlegroups.com. > Visit this group at http://groups.google.com/group/rbw-owners-bunch. > For more options, visit https://groups.google.com/d/optout. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
