Traction On The Back

Post by Rooster on Thu Jun 05, 2014 8:20 pm

So,

My Back tire is getting a bit moeg and its was time to make a plan. It also so happens that when you have Mousses, its a good Idea to take them in to have them oiled every so often, else they get hot from friction inside the casings and disintegrate.

I take mine Just Bike tire, and they charge me 300 Bucks for both lube and fit. (Mooses are over 2K a pop for Michelins so its worth it).

I had the back tire reversed at the same time so the sharp side of the knobs can grab - will let you know how much this helped  Question
