Hi guys,
I'm leaning towards getting the Andra rims straight away, rather than starting with Grizzlies. As much as I'd like to have a more responsive bike on the European holiday, I can't be bothered with the hassle and expense of changing over to heavier duty later. I've decided that Rule No. 5 applies here. (For those not familiar, see The Rules by Velominati - The Keepers of the Cog
http://www.velominati.com/the-rules/. There is wisdom and honour in upholding The Rules.)
As I am about to order the hubs and rims, I need to confirm the spoke lengths one more time. By my best advice, lengths are as follows:
1) Front wheel - Andra 30 CSS - SON 28 hub - 32 spokes - 3 cross build - 260mm spokes
2) Rear wheel - Andra 30 CSS - Rohloff Speedhub - 32 spokes - 2 cross build - 238mm spokes.
As I am getting a non-disc SON, the hub is symetrical like the Rohloff, so all spokes on each wheel are the same length.
Are we good to go?
Thanks,
Slammin!
