JG!

Kat is a weapon on the needle… she can definitely keep most of our gear going.

We have a rim on its way that should not have any problems. It’s the Rigida Andra 30 and it’s drilled for Rohloff hubs. It’s over 200g heavier than the Mavic if that’s any consolation…

Far too many would use the excuse for new shit.

32h rim under Tan Nay Nay…. Will be interested in what the stronger alternative is to a XM719! Maybe two 719’s gaffer taped together? Or if you’re running a disc on the back now, some disc specific wheels will no doubt help matters.
