Greetings:
TIA for your help.
#1 I am planning to build up new wheels with Viscount HF hubs, Mavic Mod E 27 x 1.25" narrow rims and 14 G SS spokes.
I plan to lace up the wheels myself and then bring them to a shop for dishing & truing. Having read up on the chain line
issues and the unique geometry of the rear hub, I'm wondering if I have to explain that the to shop or if the design of the
hub will make it obvious.
#2 Is the allen fitting on the stem SAE rather than metric? My metric wrenches don't fit.
#3 I picked up a second set of Viscount pedals, and they have the same in-out slack / as my originals. Is there any solution?
I can't imagine that it is a pleasant riding experience to have them shifting in and out as you pedal.
#4 Any solutions for the rear QR not holding the wheel in alignment? I notice that the QR side cam surface is smooth unlike
all other QR's I've examined. I'm considering using a Dremel tool to cut notches in the surface to give the QR more "bite"
#5 My Lambert branded brake levers have a single row of drilled holes. Was this a factory or user modification?
Again, thanks for sharing your expertise.
