Yeah, too bad that won't work for the regular model PT, which is what I have.

BTW, the Wheels Manuf cassette does work pretty well. On the PT, you'll need to use the spacer behind the cassette to...

The AMer Classic cassette does not work on the Powertap wheel. The Wheels Manuf cassette will work, but is $130 or more.

If your Tassajara is the 'genesis' geometry, you're in luck. I just converted my 00 Fisher Ziggurat to a SS. Using a 32 x 16, I get perfect chain tension using a KMC half-link, without having to use...
