I get my new wheels in next week and I have already got the Dynabeads kit to put in them.
I must admit I was doubtful as to how they work but after reading all the positive reviews I had to try them.
Oddly enough what convinced me to try them was our new LG front load washing machine.
The wife put the poodles bed pillow in there and when the machine spun there was NO, i mean NO, vibration. I could not believe it.
I found out that the the LG front loader uses water around the drum to effectively balance the wash loads.
EXACT same principle as the Dynabeads in a tire.
Tires changed out yesterday 24 Nov. and Dyna Beads installed in both of them for the first time. Time will tell if they work as claimed. I normally get 10,000 + miles out of both tires with standard wheel weight balancing. I usually put 12,000 miles a year on my Deuce.
I have had Dyna Beads in for about 2500 miles now and I do about 40 miles a day on I-4 East with 70+ mph for 20-30 min. The bike rides like it's on glass. I was really surprised at how out of balance my wheels were with the stick on weights.
