I recently built up a roadie Pescadero with Diacompe GC610s, 33mm tires and
fenders. Using centerpulls on the Roadini would just require adding cable
hangers at the headset and seat binder.

I need to try the Clem out on gravel; in fact, I need to find some gravel.
Our bike club has a Ride Our Routes collection that I will look into. But I
also need new tires, regardless. These are pretty worn from being my one
and only bike that got tons of covid miles.

I like this advice. I’m keeping my fenders. I can fit 48s under them, and I
think that’s enough. Also, I do have the breakaway tabs!

Thanks.
Just eyeballed that arrangement; no, too makeshift, you really need a

Really, this is made for small front racks of a certain minimum width. It's

Recently bought Ed C's Roadini and have been riding it as much as I can. I

Yes, this is correct. Road Shimano/SRAM are 8-9-10, and 11 is a newer
standard that should ship with a spacer to handle 8-9-10. That's what
happened with my Velocity wheel that I just bought. I was on 9 speed, so I
kept the spacer and moved my cassette from my (rim failed) older hub. Then,

all the same width. It's 7 speed that is narrower. From 8 to 9 cogs and 9

@Iconley--I was hoping I could swap the freehub to one that would fit an

apart yet so I don't know what internals or measurements the current
freehub has. I'm hoping it'll end up as less trouble than changing bb,

You likely cannot put a road 10, 11, or 12 speed cassette on an 8 speed hub
(35.4mm), and 9 speed (36.5mm) is pretty iffy also. It is possible that the
8 speed cassette is on a wider hub with a spacer, but you need to check.
Shimano 11 speed mountain cassettes fit 9 speed width hubs, so you can
