I have those actually, but I don't want to change out brakes and etc - I realize the DIacompe 750 have enough room to be both 700 and 650b, but my MAFAC Racers are so much nicer [looking] On Fri, Dec 2, 2016 at 4:08 PM, lum gim fong wrote: > Slap some Diacompe 750s on

Great, sounds like I should go with the cheapest for my needs. Time to ride home to see how 650B works on this Bob Jackson of mine before I decide to build a dyno wheelset for it :) On Fri, Dec 2, 2016 at 3:04 PM, Bill Lindsay wrote: > Both are fine for 650B. It looks

That's the delux? Unfortunately I have a 32 hole front rim I was going to build up but perhaps I should do a 28 w that hub... Is delux wide body "better" than a son28? Will I really notice a difference? If not then what should I spend money on? On Friday, December 2, 2016, BSWP

Trying to make sense of this bike I bought. I am 5'7, I was told it was a 55cm. I seem to fit it fine, if anything I am a bit stretched out on it so I was thinking next season I'd get some pullback bars, but I digress.. Looking at the website again, I see that the 58+ comes with a double tt.
