you're still not getting it. yes, you did end up with two 700c wheels in the end, but out of principle you should have gone back to the "bad" shop and said "i asked for two 700c wheels and received a mismatched set. fix it or refund my money." and stop saying you don't want to go back because it's such a hassle! 2 hours of driving?! gimme a break. that combined with your needless threads/questions just shows how lazy you are. you deserve to get ripped off.

If you have something informative or original or helpful at all to say, then say it, but if you come to a thread just to re-enforce a point thats already been establish, what are you doing? What are you proving? Wasting everyones time and lowering a fellow cyclist's morale.

hey kassebaum

have you mounted either wheel on the bike yet? I'm interested in the outcome because the documentation i found online was that the 1972 collegiates had 26" wheels.

they said its going to be fine to have a 700c on the back and 27 on the front and wont really be any difference riding it and it won't look weird. opinions?
