We don't discuss these much, but I appreciate what they are since they came with the bike and polish up well. They are nearly equivalent in rolling quality as Campy Record hubs without the adjustment or cone replacement issues:

And along the same manufacturer line, I also appreciate the uniqueness of this rim. Found a pair of NOS a few years ago for $40 that I am saving for when these wear out!

I would be afraid to try the GL 280 with my weight!

Sort of a part. I found a new attraction to crowns! Chrome is my weakness for them and lugs:

I know about the cracked crown race. Located it where pictured to minimize the impact. Can't feel a thing when riding or testing for the "bump". Do you know how hard it is to find just the SR crown race? I think it happened at the factory as the seat had overspray on it and I think there is a max allowed interference of only .002 in. It exceeded that with the paint and was slightly under after removal of the paint.
