Hi all, thanx Ray for that interesting site, was great to see another SS Rigi, I don't think mine will ever be that low in weight, I'm running Nisi stretto corsa rims, when I weighed them they were closer to 400 grammes than the advertised 370, or something like that, I know they are not light, and they are 36H as well, that does not help, maybe one day I'll get a 28H OMAS front hub with a Ti axle to go with the NISI solidal rim and they same setup but 32H for the rear, but I'm not busting my guts to get there, just keeping the peepers open. A great source for pixs, I also noticed the RIGI had a modified Campagnolo FD and not the Gian Robert original, a nice mod as well, better than the more common Galli conversions. I hope some others visit the site and enjoy it as much as I did......regards wayne davidson Invers NZ......
