Steve, Right. Paul's are Kool Stop, but the thinline version. I wonder if the salmon function/sound different than the black.
I'm not sure how much issue I would have with the partial inflate insertion. Hopefully, I won't have enough flats for it to be an issue. I'm not sure repair would be time sensitive enough to care either. A re-discussion with Roman should clear it up. Thanks.
