New Rims On the XO-2
All right...I might wait a week, or two, to fix my broken hot water pipe to the shower. And, I might wait a year to go to the doctor when I'm, having frequent, heavy, nosebleeds. But, if the XO-2 is broken, I am Jonny-on-the-spot.
The UPS guy dropped the new rims off, yesterday. I rebuilt the wheels, today.
The bike is back on the road, and I will celebrate by riding it to the coffee shop, tomorrow.
I decided that the black anodizing on the rims was acceptable. I might actually replace these wheels, if I come up with some silver versions, just because I prefer silver over black for vintage bikes. For now, though, they are fine.
Maybe I can avoid breaking these, within the next year, either way.

Can new rims make coffee taste better? Probably.
You've got priorities! Without transportation, you got nuthin'.
I feel that way about the Trucker, but when it's out of commission, it DOES cause me problems getting around. It's my main transportation ride, and so many other things.
I think the black rims look fine.
