Who did the work and how was the price and timing of the work? Thanks.I got my ボロボロ Schwinn Paramount returned back to me today freshly painted and aligned
Managed to get Anchor out today as weather was ok. On one hill passed a MEGA MAMIL on a beautiful BMC cycle and it got me thinking about weight limits for riders on carbon frames and light weight wheels etc so did some digging. Found this where someone was asking same question - http://bicycles.stackexchange.com/q...eight-that-normal-racing-wheels-can-withstand
It seems some people must be putting their lives at risk with light weight wheels and toooo much weight on themselves....
Found this also - Specialized weight limits - quite low for race cycles http://www.specialized.com/media/docs/support/0000037057/0000037057_r1.pdf

But some wheels are down to 85 kgsLow? Who is out there buying a Venge and weighing over 109kg? That is an advanced bike for an advanced rider. With say 15% body fat, you would need to be about 275cm tall to go over this limit.
Thanks for the info.. That looks great, oldschool and practical. Decals in it's future? Any reason for the wheelset swap? I really like the look of that 650B wheel set. Looks like you have enough cable to be able to run your shifter cables under the bar tape to the stem and perhaps you can shorten the brake cables as well for a cleaner look? Nice ride.I'm going to switch out the brakes and 650B wheels for 700c and get a slightly less tall stem (can't jam it in any farther than that), but here's the build for now. I also need to paint that pump.

Haha. Unfortunately (or fortunately?) my process isn't nearly as exacting as yours and thus not worth the effort of documentation.
I can't really say anything about the paint except that it's a powder coat and it was chosen from a book of Japanese colors. I can say that it looks really nice, though.

On the first link I supplied on earlier post, if you go down the page there is a quote from Fulcrum wheels and link to their site. Also Mavic have stated max 100kgsWhich wheels are these? Got a link?
