| We all know Mavic Reflex CD rims are reasonably priced, easily sourced and when properly built, provide a nice, reliable wheelset. However, for some reason, you are tubular and you scare people. |
 |
| This Velocity A23 rim weighs 441g. |
 |
| This Reynolds aerodynamic, carbon, rim weighs 414g. |
 |
| This EDGE carbon, tubular rim weighs a remarkable 220g. |
 |
| Here they are side by side. |
 |
This should be a fun rebuild project and I am really looking forward to building some carbon wheels. |
 |
| I use a tiny bit of grease at the nipple rim interface. This prevents spoke winding. |
 |
| I do enjoy this wall mounted, magnetic, tool holder. |
 |
| This is a spoke tension cross reference chart from Park Tool. |
 |
| Park Tool also makes this spoke tensionometer. |
 |
| I will glue these tires. |
 |
| The front wheel weighs 617g. |
 |
| The rear wheel weighs 767g. |
 |
| The non-drive side tension averaged 59Kgf. |
