Front Wheel Done

Well this was my first attempt at a “clincher” rim. A little tricky to mount correctly. 

I received some advice from others who are familiar with these rims. So away I went and practiced mounting the tire on and off a few times. I knew I might need to do this on the road sometime. The only tools I used were these tire irons. 

And time for the inner tube and carefully mounting the tire as to not pinch the tube. Success! 

Inflated to 20 psi and gave it a spin!
