Don't mess with the canti stud. Just put a washer, or two, on AFTER you mount the brake but BEFORE you secure the mounting bolt.

Two other options: Hutchinson and CaffeLatex I generally add Stan's sealant to tubulars for flat protection, it does add a bit of weight, I think several ounces of preventive medicine is worth it.

I have nothing against the EA70X's, but at 200 pounds I think you would be better off going with the Reflex to Ultegra wheelset. It's a tried and true setup with a higher spoke count, cup and cone bearings that are easy to adjust and repack, and ...

About Me:
I've spent 10 of my 26 years on this earth engrossed in cycling. I've worked as a mechanic at shops across the US, worked as a framebuilding apprentice and product manager for a custom framebuilding company.

I enjoy all forms of cycling, especially mountain and 'cross — preferably singlespeed, thankyouverymuch.

I live in Lawrence, Kansas, one of the best little cities in the nation. I'm currently attending the University of Kansas where I'm earning my master's degree in journalism.

Ever-changing
Favorite Race:
Anything technical.
Dream Bike:

Favorite thing about cyclocross:
The camaraderie. The pain is a close second.

Just long enough to become addicted.

singlespeed

Gary Fisher talks about the growth of grass-roots 'cross racing in North America.

He hadn't mentioned it but I posted over at RBR and some people had run into the same issues.

Josh...thanks for the contact info for Donn at Challenge. He is sending me a new tire. I am going to be in Tulsa in December and am going to try to make it to the Nationals. I'll buy you a beer!

Re: Cross-check build.... Yeah I just got it a few days ago and I just started building it up. This is my gonna be my trail-riding-dip-my-toe-in-cyclocross-racing bike. The specs are as follows: Salsa Delgado Rims with LX hubs (something to train on), Ritchey SpeedMax 35C Tires, Salsa Bell Lap Handlebars, 1x9 with Campy Veloce right shift lever and Cane Creek SCR-5 left lever, Ritchey WCS 110 mm Stem, Cane Creek S8 Headset, Shimano BR-550 cantilever brakes, XT rear derailleur, SRAM 970 Chain, SRAM 970 11-34 Cassette, Salsa Crossing Guard, Surly Stainless Steel 42t Chainring and FSA Vero Compact Crankset.

My original intention was to cannibalize most of the parts off my road bike but once I got started I figure why not just go all the way. The gear spread is a bit more then what I need for racing (or so I've been told) but it should be perfect for hitting the local trails in the off season. She may not be the lightest girl at the ball but I should be able to ride her home.

Lawrence is a great community, very bike friendly, it's one of only a handful of cities in the Midwest I could happily inhabit.

Lawrence, Kansas! I thought the background in the La Cruz photos looked familiar. My entire family is from Emporia and my brother-in-law grew up in Lawrence. We have some farmland right outside of town. I use to hate going there as a kid but I miss it now days.
