my back is doing quite well, thank you for asking. i am now seeing my physical therapist once every couple weeks. i have made extreme improvements. the pulling and chronic tightening has stopped. i feel it pull MAYBE once a day, but i just do the stretching she taught me,and i am great. amazing. don't think i will need to go back to the chiropractor ever. the massage therapist told me if i don't have the joint mobility, it doesn't matter how many times someone puts me back to neutral, i will always pop back out. she basically said that chiropractic is just a bandaid on a problem that just needs joint stretching.
ok, back to the wheels. i have a carbon aero fork on my bike and suppose that it is great only i don't have anything to compare it to. sorry for my ignorance here.
i have found some wheel builders that work with track racers and triathletes, i didn't know there was a wheel building machine. i will keep this in mind when shopping, and know to run the other way.
the wheel builder i found makes custom track bikes too. i have heard that on the bikes he tends to heat the materials a little to high. some say this weakens the frame. i havent' heard the same about their wheel building. i will need some guidance here. i may get on a local cyclists website here and start asking around. if i do decide to get some wheels built, what material should i go for? carbon? do they tend to crack?
my wheelset now is radially laced. will the custom wheel set be the same or do they do 3 spoke cross? have been told that radially laced is more aimed toward racers, and therefore gives a more tight or "rigid" ride.
thanks everybody for the great advice. it is taken with the greatest affection.
