Hey, thanks to both of you. That's all really useful. Your Ruben looks nice, SnowJob. I like that there's clearance for wider on the Cutlass as well, they say 700x34 on the site.

Thank you, there's a bit more information out there about Transition. It's good to know that they're real, and the sites were obviously built by the same people.

The Smarty can't be overhauled, unlike the Candys...once they're shot, you toss 'em. Otherwise, I think they're generally not as high quality as the Candys.
