| May 17, 2022 at 7:52 | comment | added | leftaroundabout | @Criggie I actually spent the entire last week with only a saddle-equipped bike (I'm working abroad a couple of months and could only take one bike with me). But that's over now – got me a nice 20" trial bike second-hand, no pesky saddle... | |

| Mar 23, 2022 at 21:07 | comment | added | Jahaziel | I had a Bontrager radial laced front wheel for rim brakes (linear pull, a.k.a. V-Brakes) and they worked just fine. That wheel outlasted the frame It originally came with (Trek VRX 400) and died when the brake worn the rim too much. | |

| Mar 22, 2022 at 7:59 | comment | added | Carel | The front wheels on my three rim-brake bikes are radially spoked. I'm 80kg and so far I've not had any negative effects. | |
