Default Dyna Beads?
DK customs is a great custom bike co and I have had nothing but good results from their products. After just looking through their site I was I saw the information on their Dyna Bead kit that's supposed to improve the tire balance and wear. Before I pull the trigger on taking my wheel weights off and dropping them in my tires, I was wondering if anyone is running them or any experience with them?

Thanks

that is the only way we balance wheels in the shop... super clean wiht no weights!

may sound loco... but use a small vibrator on the valve stem and it will help them fall it... works

tubed front no tube rear... all powdered... dyna beaded!

We only use Dyna beads to mount and balance our wheels, been using them for over 2 years now with nothing but success. No ugly weights here!

Do you need to take the stem out or can you put them in with the regular stem
