It really depends on the rim, spokes used and lacing of the wheel.

Those rims are pretty rigid. I would think only a small spot where that missing spoke is would go slightly out of whack and be a pretty easy fix if the wheel was built right to begin with.

Thanks for your time.
A buddy and I were having a discussion on 28 vs 32 vs 36 and how much we suspected they would go out. We were also talking about 622 vs 559. We are just trying to get the knowledge without resorting to a scientific experiment, ya know, taking bolt cutters to a spoke.

All you'd really need to do is loosen one spoke 4-5 turns of a spoke wrench if you want to do a real-world experiment.
Just yuckin' around.

[h=1]Scrod,
When will you get more of the Aventon Mataro's back in stock? I'm looking at the 49mm size.[/h]

Hey Scrod
I just put together my first fixed gear bike and I noticed that my cog doesn't quite line up with my chainring, which sticks out a bit more. I'm guessing this is because of the pretty wide BB that came with my s300 cranks?
Is there an easy way to fix this?
Cheers!

Hey Scrod, just tried installing a new 710SL chain, and realized it's one link too short at 100... I need 101 links exactly for my two most commonly used cogs. The previous KMC 710 chain I'd used came with 112 links -- like most other KMC chains seem to.
Does the 710SL come in longer lengths than the default 100? Or, can you recommend another chain that comes with > 100 (looking at either the Izumi eco or Z510HX possibly). I'd used a Z410 first, and it didn't last long at all for me... but loved the 710. Thanks.
