BICYCLE RIM WITH ENLARGED OUTER RADIAL EDGES
A bicycle rim for carrying a tire. The rim includes a circumferential tire bed including first and second opposing edge regions a circumferential spoke face, and first and second side walls extending from the spoke face to the first and second edge regions, respectively. The first and second side walls include first and second side wall extensions radially extending from the first and second opposing side regions and terminating at first and second outer radial edges, respectively. Each of the first and second outer radial edges defining a maximum width that is at least 3.8 mm. The thickness of the first and second side wall extensions varies with respect to a central radial axis. The thickness of the first and second side wall extensions is greater at the first and second outer radial edges than at a location radially spaced from the first and second outer radial edges and adjacent to the first and second opposing end regions, respectively.

MECHANICAL GUIDING SYSTEM
A system for guiding a part, including a through-hole, toward a desired position. The system includes a connector and a handle member. The connector is configured to be removably attached to the desired position. The connector is also configured to pass through the through-hole. The handle member has a distal portion connected to the connector. The distal portion is configured to pass through the through-hole. The handle member is configured to lift the part while the connector is attached to the desired position and a portion of the handle member is within the through-hole. The handle member is configured to allow the part to slide therealong and into the desired position while the part is lifted by the handle member. The connector is removable from the desired position after the part has been slid into the desired position.
