1992 Bridgestone RB-1 with H Plus Son TB14 rims in Hard Anodized Gray
When I'm looking at getting new stuff, I always search all over for photos of it in actual use to see if it is really what I want. Recently this happened with a wheelbuild where I wanted to use H Plus Son TB14 rims on my stock Shimano 600 Tricolor hubs.
Anyway, this post is to maybe help someone in the future see what these rims look like in actual use!

Looks really nice, @SpookyReverb! How wide do your tires measure on those rims?

I love dark rims on gum walls. Obviously looks great on that bike.

Looks great.
And if you want to keep that dark grey ano in tip-top shape, just don't use your brakes

This looks very good. I have a 93 RB 1 and this is getting me to think of using a set of dark rims for a build on that as well.

Hey, that's cool! The TB14s are nice rims, I've got them on my Salsa Casseroll as well (but the polished/silver version).

The TB14 is the spiritual descendent of the Mavic MA40 but still avaiable without ridiculous NOS prices. Well done.

All of a sudden, I need some TB-14s in my (bikes') life... They match the bike and gumwall tires wonderfully!
