Well, yesterday I crushed the Mavic rear rim I had on the geared bike, once again verifying that I don't think Mavics have the strength for what they retail for. Luckily, I only paid $10 for the rim at a bike swap (which is why I had it in the first place) and I have a new Sun CR18 hanging on the wall. Thing is, I don't feel like building a wheel right now. Oh well, just another reason to ride the single speed. And I thought I was being nice by dusting off the geared bike and showing it some attention for a change!
