Cool Hypothetical poll

Hypothetically speaking, if you had ordered and received a set of Elite 3's for your bike at a smokin' great price and have never tried them yet, and then you ordered a received a brand new Cycle Hill tire changer again at a smokin' great price, but you had one season left of tread on your stock tires could you/would you put the tires and tire changer up in the rafters of your garage and let them sit until October? Or would you put the new tires on now and try them out as it is the beginning of the season?

I guess I'm just frugal. If you don't use the tires you have on there while they are still good and safe haven't you really just thrown the money away you spent on those thereby negating your 'smokin' great price'?

As long as they're safe - I'm riding them.....

If you are going from 402's to E3's, do it now. You will not regret it.

All depends on the condition of your current tires, if you throw away good tires just to try yer changer & E3's that'll off set yer smokin deal won't it? Ahhhh what the hell go ahead if you'll sleep better
