good call. I am pretty sure the jones spec rims are non branded versions of the wtbs so good call on the spokes but also good call on double butted spokes, cheap way to save rotating weight.

I think I want to rotate the tires because the front now has two patches so I want it on the back. I’ll probably mess with it then. I want new rims eventually but I also don’t love dropping $$$ on stuff I don’t need
