- Velocity Aeroheat: Comparable to the A23, but only 19-20mm wide so why not go with the A23? Because they come in a lot of colors might be a reason.
Minor point of clarification... I think you're likely referring to the Aero
head. The Aero
heat is the name for the Dyad in sizes smaller than 700c/622, so its a 24mm wide rim like the Dyad. The Aerohead is a more traditional 19mm rim.
Beautiful bike builds, btw!
