Thanks, Tom, Gene, Chris, and Ryan for taking the time to offer your ideas,
and especially the comments about whether to go tubeless. I will keep them
in mind for the future. I ended up going through my local bike shop and
bought a pair of Specialized Pathfinder Pro's, 700 × 38. Ryan's preference
My Soma Shikoro tires need to be replaced. I'm seeking recommendations
from the hive. The new tires will be paired with 700C Velocity NoBS
wheels. I ride mostly on pavement, but the tires need to be able to handle
gravel, too. Suggestions?

You received this message because you are subsc

college, fully recognizing the inherent risks involved and, hopefully,
having made peace with the possibility of him graduating from college
without the bike in his possession.

Let's make it 3 for 3. Keep the new Clem at home. There will be plenty of
time for him to enjoy it during college breaks, and post-college. In 20+
years as a campus pastor at a Big 12 university, I don't ever recall seeing
that nice of a bike on campus.
