I don't want to make myself a bore on the subject, but the combination is, to my mind, as big a benefit to all rounder -- ie combination dirt/pavement -- cycling as clipless pedals and modern dynamo lighting to the sport generally. More miles on the Fargo this morning, half dirt. I came across a cyclist flicking the goatheads from her tires, stopped to offer help and was told that the tires had sealant. So the goatheads are thick and nasty. But no flats at all.
~ 40 miles so far of local bosque dirt (plus more pavement) and, not only no flats, no need to add air. I can tell I've lost a bit of pressure as air escapes while the sealant does its job, but just barely enough to notice when I squeeze the tires. And this with wonderfully fast pavement rolling. I do notice the usual wind resistance when riding into a stiff headwind, compared to, say, 35 mm Kojaks -- all 2"+ tires that measure ~29" are like sails compared to skinnier or shorter tires, at least IME. But that aside, the Freds roll wonderfully on pavement and firm dirt or gravel, and do well enough in sand that I don't miss wider, softer tires too much in sandy areas. -- *RESUMES THAT GET YOU NOTICED!* Certified Resume Writer http://resumespecialties.com/index.html patrickmo...@resumespecialties.com http://www.linkedin.com/in/patrickmooreresumespec/ Albuquerque, NM -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
