The Dark SideFor those members running "Car Tires" on their scoots. This is for their discussion only and not a place for "non dark siders" to mouth off about their negative opinions of this idea!
Yea, I scrape boards regularly with it. Interestingly, you have more lean angle with a CT (car tire) because it's edge is closer to the side of the bike. I run 32 - 38 Lbs or so, it doesn't much care as long as it's over 28 - 30. Break it in at 40 PSI for 200 miles and it'll love you for many, many miles.
I like Ride-On tire balancer / sealant. It's not the best sealant but it's a great balancer. The good old string plugs work great for puctures anyway. Mine has one or two in it now due to all the construction around. I never give my tire a thought any more, it's just normal. I do get some interested people asking about it though.
Interesting.... how many miles do you have on it now in the rear, and how is tread wear?
