When I originally built up this Sam as a demo bike/my personal whip, I stuck on some old Mavic Open Sport rims, because I had em layin' around. Paired 'em with some Pasela tires, fine fine, good tires, road velcro. The other day I blew out the rear tire on a dirt road, and incidentally, Velocity had just shipped me a random extra Quill rim. I'd built a few wheels with Quills, and dug them. So I ordered another, ditched the narrow, non-tubeless ready Mavics, and rebuilt the wheels using Sapim Force spokes and Quill rims. White Industries rear hub, Schmidt front. Happy days. I used our secret tubeless tape and a custom blend of Orange Seal juice, and mounted some smooth 38mm Gravelking rubber. They sing! Much faster feeling than the Paselas, meatier sidewall than a Compass. Shot these pics with an old Jupiter lens in the back yard of Analog Cycles.
