------- Thomas, I¹ve weighed 220-260 lbs, and I¹ve logged 5,000 miles a year when I rode my bike to work. I¹ve never had the degree of trouble you describe, even with OEM wheels, but these days I ride wheels built by Rich Lesnik at Rivendell, and by Peter White. You don¹t mention your wheel builder, but I think that¹s the critical factor. Appropriate components are not enough; wheels must be assembled by skilled hands. In your shoes, I would call Rich or Peter. There are other good wheel builders out there, but I¹m positive either of those can guide you to the right wheels for your Sam and its rider. -- Jon ³Papa² Grant Austin, Texas -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
