Jan 29, 2003 10:47 AM | | hi nino et al!
I'm going to be gettin a 517 ceramic rim built onto a king classic hub soon.
strange story but I found a whl in a bin recently,(yeh somebody put it in my bin!) I'd never used spokes as thin as the DT revolutions the whl came with> i used the whl for 6months (on my winter bike!) before the hub fell apart. I was surprised that I didnt have any problems with the spokes. With this in mind are the sapim spokes(which ones in particular) pretty good? as I think after tryin thinner spokes I could get away with a liter wheel despite my ridin antics.
thanks for any input
