My Rear Wheel


I've replaced the original rear wheel with a 700C (622 mm) "Euro-size" rim since 27" (630 mm) quality rubber is hard to get in Europe. I also took the excuse to upgrade to a considerably better rim - a box-profile Mavic Module-4 which they recommend "for tandems and expeditioning" - and a Suntour sealed hub which now holds a 7-speed freewheel.

(Sorry, no picture.)
