Product selection help: wheelset for vintage(ish)steel roadbike yes I agree. I am increasingly thinking of instead going for a set of Mavic Open Pros built onto Shimano 105 hubs. I found a site that sells them complete for £78 each; an absolute bargin afaik: rutlandcycling.com/23364/… They should look a lot nicer than the black aksiums and more servicable. |

Product selection help: wheelset for vintage(ish)steel roadbike No, my bike has 700c wheels and although I think my rear dropouts might be 124mm rather than 130, with a steel frame I hear it is easily possible to fit modern wheels. @zippy I weight around 66kg so shouldn't need too heavily-built wheels |

Product selection help: wheelset for vintage(ish)steel roadbike I've actually found somewhere that sells a build of Open Pros on 105 hubs for £155 for the pair. Is this worth going for? |

Mounting a 7-Speed Cassette on an 8/9 speed hub Great, think I'll opt for the 8-speed as I'm currently on a 7 and only going up one size is probably safer. Besides I don't feel the need for more than 8 on the back. |

Mounting a 7-Speed Cassette on an 8/9 speed hub I intend to change the chain anyway. So I assume you have no problem with the narrower chain getting stuck between your front chainrings. |
