I am thinking of some hetre's to replace my col de la vie's on my Bleriot, so I would be very interested in your further evaluation of the new soma's Jim D Massachusetts

I stopped by Box Dog Bikes on the way home to pick up a pair of Cypres's. I mounted them and took the bleriot for a spin around the neighborhood. Even on the short ride I noticed a significant difference; much less of that sluggish feeling and almost no hesitation when pedaling out of the saddle. This is promising. I also liked the fact that I can remove and reinstall both wheels without having to deflate the tire. Tomorrow I'll take the bike up some hills to see if that's improved as well. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
