Hi Eric,
Yes I rode the bike for a season the way you sold it to me but over time I bought other components on ebay to rebuild the bike.
Including a 9 speed conversion with derailleur, 9 speed chain, cassette, and shifter. The CrossMax ST wheels was the last piece of the puzzle to rebuild the ride. My local bike shop had a heck of a time trying to mount the Schwalbe tires on the rims. Took 2 of them 4 hours until I called Schwalbe and they explained to them what to do. BTW Schwalbe has excellent customer service. They actually pick up the phone and talk to you right away. No machine.
