Hey Guys,

I didn't realize until I rode it after the repair what a difference that made. The bike is a lot smoother since they replaced the entire back wheel.

On another note, I got tired of all of my flats and replaced both tires with Bontrager Race Lite Hardcase. The ride didn't seem to suffer at all, but I guess that when you're 205 LBS on a road bike an additional 100grams per tire really doesn't make much difference. Hopefully my trackrecord of a flat every other ride will be over.

Later

Mac
