No-onr runs them that hard, how can you ride it?! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barbra Posted June 28, 2007 Report Share Posted June 28, 2007 might be the fact you were running such a high preassure...considering when i rode trials i only had about 20psi in the rear and about 17 in the front... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Broomer Posted June 28, 2007 Report Share Posted June 28, 2007 I have had this problem, but is was because the rim tape was really old and like perished. Just wrap allot of electrical tape around the rim. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Muel Posted June 28, 2007 Report Share Posted June 28, 2007 i run 35... so your wrong. or foil, looks pimp I don't know how you can stand it, that is sooooo hard.And I am not wrong, you're wrong. Everyone I know runs 25 or less, (In most cases much less).35 is batty, but 40-50 is even more batty. It must ride like a road bike! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
