Panaracer GK SK were pretty difficult to get onto the hookless rims but they are holding steady pressure since last night.

Panaracher tires smell soooo good.

Significant changes to this bike very soon.

I have new Ultegra centerlock rotors, ordered four piston Hope RX4 brake calipers, Absolute Black 46-30 chainrings and will be attempting to use an 11-42 MTB cassette on these wheels. If successful I'll have a sub 20 inch low gear.

Neato. You have 15mm front axle, right? I'm curious if you'll run into the issue I did with CL lockrings. Hopefully not.

Sub-20 inch on moderns gear, you'll make those folks in /touring all kinds of jelly.
