Thank you!
Yeah, came a long way from Italy/Canada. I actually bought this frame from an eBay seller in California, so this bike has made its rounds. If walls (or bikes) could talk, right?
I have a habit of building non matching wheelsets, and this was my first carbon build. Both rims came from eBay sellers. The Easton was used as a rear road wheel and got pretty thrashed - way out of true, spokes busted, hub missing a dust cap. The Mavic rim was NOS from a seller called RogueMechanic. He's got lots of Mavic wheel goodies if you ever need any for a build. Laced both hoops to some DT Swiss track hubs and they've felt great for the first 500 miles.
Thanks for looking and ride safe!
