I don’t recall anything about Bastogne or Kermesse besides the name, but I’d double-check the stats, because I doubt they were 21mm internal in ‘09, based on my recollections of the period.
Well, just 2 mos ago I put in new Velox rims strips - 22mm - doing a tire change, frt & bk, and the tape fit perfectly in the bed only... the 2 ardennes wheelsets are same... and remembering the Orders and Invoices from HED...
My older Ritchey OCR aero wheels are 17 - like them a bunch, so I still ride those on my Marin Treviso...
Ride On
