Yet another Moots Vamoots CR

The Veloflex tires look FANTASTIC! Almost as good as that view!

Deflection issues = not good. I can just imagine riding with friends going uphill, then having to get out of the saddle and having the rear brake rub. That would just suck away any joy that I had for the wheels.

Thanks! Sooo much better than brown walls!

Deflection, when the pads were brand new, it was still pretty subtle. Now after doing some rides, it’s not very noticeable.

I talked myself in joining a few friends to do a Bay Area tour late spring. Two of them I did Cycle Oregon’s Classic ride. The route we did in Oregon was def much more gradual compared to some climbs around here. Thinking about the following updates:

- 11-34t cassette with specific length chain
- Cayuse Pass EL casing tires

Now that I have two wheelsets, one with a inner width of 18.5mm and the other 21mm, I’d like to experiment going tubeless and getting close to fitting 28mm tires

Really nice bike. Any thoughts on the eewings? I've considered these for the road but am curious about q-factor/etc.; similar feel to Shimano/Sram/Campy?
