i'm pretty new to road cycling. in fact, i just finished wearing through my
first set of tires. to replace my continental 3000s, i purchased some
michelin megamiums (700x23). in my first attempt to put the new tires
on my wheels, i found it _extremely_ difficult. i never had this sort of problem
with my conti's. is this fairly normal for new tires?? any tips to break-in the
new rubber and to ease them onto the wheels??
