by the prospect of replacing it with a S2c duomatic kick shift hub. I went
out to Mission Bicycles here in San Francisco where they even had a

Gorgeous bike! And yeah, give the fatties a try. I didn't have much fun in
traffic with the heavy 700 x 2.15" Marathons that Riv likes so much, but
when I put a set of Schwalbe Big Ones on, wow! They still spin up nice and

Just converted them to tubeless
