First Proper Ride on the New Wheels

Lately, the weather here has been less than ideal for riding, but on Saturday it was nice enough to get out for a while. To finish off the new wheels I mounted an old set of Kenda Booster Pro 700x40s (with inner tubes), and then installed a Euro Asia Imports 18t cog and lockring on the rear hub. I'm happy with how it all came together. My Jedan *might* be set for a while.

New Wheelset

I recently built up a new set of wheels that I've had in the works for a while: Raketa RAW hubs laced to Whisky No.9 30d rims with DT Swiss Aero Comp spokes and Pro Lock brass nipples. The finished set weighed in at 1550 grams, which I'm pretty happy about considering these aren't the lightest hubs (nor are they trying to be).
