Hello everyone,
I am wondering if anyone knew what kinds of tires/wheels these are in the picture of the following link: ECMC 2006
They look as if they were made out of wood. Lol
Second query:
I'm having a rear wheel built for my singlespeed cross bike.
I just ordered a 36 hole 130mm Phil Wood fix/free hub and a 36 hole 700c Velocity Deep V rim. I am thinking having the hub and rim laced with DT Swiss Alpine III spokes. How do know if DT Swiss makes the lengths required fro the rim and hub I bought? Another thing, is it worth spending a little extra for the DT Pro Lock nipples? Or is that just a gimmick?
Thank you for bearing my newbie thoughts and questions,
Richard
