I just built up a second pair of wheels, some clinchers, since I had another pair of high flange record hubs kicking around. The clinchers are open sport rims so there's still a bit of French to it. The px-10 were plentiful bikes compared to some other ones and this is a pretty sweet resto in my books.
Thanks'
One of the elements that give me and everyone else little creative license is the fact that these bikes are not particularly scarce. It's like a 1965 Ford Mustang: a popular, fun and interesting item, but not truly rare.
