w00t!

UPS just dropped off my CR-18's!

It is a bit shocking how thin they are though. I hadn't realized they would be this narrow. 22.5mm isn't even close to an inch wide on the outside while the old rims are more like 1-1/4". I wonder what they are going to look like on the old '54? Surely it'll take a little getting used to. I'm sure that the first time I pull the brake lever in the wet I'll be loving the difference though.
