i left it filled up to 85 psi for 24 hours, no sign of bending in the braking surface or anything, probably going to finish the build friday at kraynicks.

so, according to sheldon brown i stretch the rules of the tire width to rim width game on a regular basis... i am building up an old mtb with crappy flipflop wheelset and 700c x 35c tires for the winter extravaganza... this means:
622x14 rims (alexrims rt450)
622x35 tires (schwable racing ralph)
am i begging for a rim failure or is all this worrying for nothing?
