I had a few questions in a previous post, most of which were answered.
One that didn't get answered- Is it a mistake to actually ride a bike with metal clad wood rims?
I don't plan on riding it that often, maybe a few times a year. I weigh about 175 and would ride 6-8 miles each time. The wood is in good shape, the metal clad is pitted but seems structurally pretty sound.
I would hate to damage the rims but I have a strong preference for bikes that I can actually ride.
