Boost Test - 11sp shifting problems confirmed fixed, rebuilt wheel is solid!

Since I did NOT tear apart the wheel, I took off the 12 speed cassette and put the old 11 speed back on to try out the wheel, and entire bike itself.

I missed the bike - its big but light, awesome downhill but not quite right when climbing.

The rebuilt wheel worked perfectly - not a ping out of it, spokes seemed good after the ride.
The shifting was also perfect, no holding down the lever to keep it in the biggest ring - turns out
an adapter, maybe at the crank? is needed to account for the missing 3mm. Yes, the tolerances are that tight.



Next step is to put on the 12speed shifters and rear mech, lets see what 50T feels like.
