Nevada, South Dakota, and Rhode Island seem to be the only states devoid of
Riv Riders (I'm sure they're out there!), and East of the Mississippi seems
far more represented than the vast, open spaces out West.

Hey Ryan, Thanks for the further info. I'll try the dual compound as things
get wetter up here in BC. Now I'm wondering if it's something in the nature

A couple of things—true and dish wheels before you bring up final
tension…so you don’t pull any of the ferrules out. That’s a bummer.
And once you think you’ve done it, bounce wheel on the floor as you rotate
it to release any wind up Then lay wheel down, and lean on it as you
continue to rotate.
And yes, that little hard-cover Jobst book is the bible…that along with
truing stand, dishing gauge and some patience are all you need.

for city riding is the Pasella Protite. Very
comfy tires, with better puncture resistance than the original. They offer
great grip on pavement - and they do surprisingly well on dirt. However, I
wish they came in a 700cx40 or 42. The fattest is a 38mm.
