I now have a 62 MIT Atlantis frame. I'm gonna order a new Rich-built wheelset for it. Velocity Quill? Cliffhanger?
I'm leaning toward Quill because they fit a wider range of tires, esp. narrower ones in case I want to go crazy and fender it. Also, Quills are lighter by a pound, seem to be strong enough (I'm not gonna tour with heavy loads). Jan's article, "Myth 18: Wide Tires Need Wide Rims <https://www.renehersecycles.com/myth-18-wide-tires-need-wide-rims/>" started me on this path. A chart in that article says a 21mm inside width (what the Quill has) should be able to handle a 64mm ((!) tire ... though Velocity recommends up to 47...which seems very conservative to me. I'm running Dyads and 2.1 Nano's on my Toyo Atlantis...super combination. I won't be putting a 64 tire on a Quill, but will think strongly about the 55 Antelope Hills. Also have some 29x2 G-One Speeds to consider. Anyone have any experience with Quills?
