Hi The reason I asked this question, was that I was away buying/attempting to buy some more bike parts etc. Have come home with some stuff which will be on my sales list later today. But I was looking for some 700C 32H clincher rims, came home with 2 27" 32H clincher rimes, both different, ones a yellow label Faimme and the other a Mavic MA2, I could have gotten another MA2 but with a retail of NZ$160 I would not have gotten it cheap, the one I did get cost US$15 and I was happy at that, they are both NOS, cripes I've dribbled again, the reason I asked was that the 2 are about 4-5mm different in OD, so I guess maybe its a just a brand difference, but I needed to ask as I don't have a sutherlands book, and all my other wheels here are 700C.
   Another question, are 27" 40H alloy clincher rims hard to find, I could have bought one but was unsure.......regards wayne davidson Invers NZ........
