I was in a pinch to get the bike ready for the USCRA giro last spring, so after looking high and low for a proper width 32 hole 17" rim, I put the 18" front on the back axle to check for clearance, calculated the difference in gearing at 9% and then had Buchanan's lace up an 18" Excel to the rear drum, which seems to work fine. I have since learned from Bob Coy of USCRA that he had a batch of Stornello 32 hole 17" rims of the proper width made in China and has some left. I plan to get one from him. You can contact him at; raceuscra at yahoo.com to inquire.
