Bikeforums.net is a forum about nothing but bikes. Our community can help you find information about hard-to-find and localized information like bicycle tours, specialties like where in your area to have your recumbent bike serviced, or what are the best bicycle tires and seats for the activities you use your bike for.Rev.Chuck

I finally finished my twotoone that I posted pieces of way back when. The Spot hubs never showed after three, yes three, months of waiting, so I got Pauls. I like the Pauls, the axle spacer/bolt makes it easy to get a disk wheel out with out screwing with the caliper or even the tension adjusters. I used Avid full metal jackets and bent the tubing with my brake line bender to get better angles and a cleaner look. Started with a 34/17 gear but had to drop to 32/17 to handle the single track. Everything works great, the IRC tubeless tires really hook up but don't feel draggy, the brakes are smooth and quiet, the Fox rlt100 is flat amazing. It weighs about 24.5 pounds with pedals and stuff. Grey and Curly like it to.
