This is a little narrower than you are looking for, but this is my new
favorite go-to tire.
The Forte (performance) Greenway, its 700x40 so about a 1.6"

They are cheap, belted, somewhat light, and have a great tread.
With shoulder pain, are you sure the bars aren't too wide?
That is the first thing I thought of seeing you said 5'8" and a 46cm bar.
But yes, a shorter stem might help too.
For new bars, I usually try to wear gloves and forego tape for the
first week or so. Lots of variables to try before setti

I will agree. They are not handbuilt wheels, but neither are the

A quick stint of a few minutes in a stand is proper procedure for any

Yes, that one exactly.
VAR made a copy back in the day, or this one is the copy, either way,
a great tool. Its very handy and it works to prestress cables as well
as to adjust cable slack.
It does not however have the ratcheting holder so you have to keep you

Tires can easily triple the rim width.

I have never heard the term Fred to denote a racer type persona. It has

Not sure on why you would need a tablet. Do you take extra cables and
spokes on your rides too?
For the most part, electric shifting is pretty rock steady. Being with a
