I received this 650c tubular today with a Mavic Hub sans one conical washer but very happy to have found one. Getting parts ready in preparation for another build.

I bet that will be outstanding. I squeezed 28mm Continental GP4000-SII on my McLean (a similar bike) and it's a heavenly ride.

Squeezed is the word. There's only about 4-5mm clearance at the brake bridge.

I'm building wheels for someone else, so I recently received the rims, spoke nipples, and a freewheel remover. The spokes (purchased separately) are on the way to me.

Where do you get that? I got one a few years ago and don't know where. I used it to mask my chrome lugs when I was painting my frame.

Those are really nice, but still skeptical about the Garmin.

Amazon of course! All kinds of choices. I don't think there are differences between any of them. Fairly common for making masks.
