Well the gripe I guess was more about my rims apparantly and how the sides are too high and make tight fitting tires well hard as heck to get on. The tires are great but heavy and slow (good exercise) I actually ordered another pair just now along with yellow bar end mirrors that match my yellow bar tape. I guess I can't use slime though. I ride at 95psi.

If the nail got in their tuesday it means I had 50+ miles on it easily. The ticking sound is no longer there so it must have been the nail. 270+ Lbs of me along with 75+lbs of bike plus gear on concrete so the tires have it rough. I am carrying a heavier load then normal because our office is moving and I'm bringing my personal stuff home by bike.
