If the Hetchins hasn't got good alloy wheels yet, go for it. Love those Suntour Perfect freewheels. Nothing like an upgrade! Keep me in mind if you decide differently. Got to pass on the 700c s - I guess I could scrap my Record sidepulls for Tektro long reaches (might even give somewhat improved braking) but I somehow can't get myself to do it. I did spring for a pair of Shimano aero levers to replace the Record levers ( nice increasse in leverage and don't miss the cable housings) , so ... who knows?
