Thank you again for the advice SP ~
The rim Is narrower compared to the front but I felt no disadvantage.
The two extra teeth on the gear gave me exactly what I wanted when starting out
and a far more comfortable spin at the leisurely speeds I intend to ride.
Installed with a new chain to fit the extra cog teeth, $90, more than the bike cost ha!
My bike shop gave me a small 1 ounce bottle of, 'BOESHIELD T-9',
They said It would noticeably help prevent corrosion In the sea side conditions the bike will be used In.
Told me there Is nothing better, a full size spray can costs $25,
Told me my 1 ounce bottle should last a while. Time will tell on this unknown product.
