Hi. New to the forum. Haven't been up on the new technology in a few years and wanted to ask a few opinions.
Airless/flatfree tires: these sure do sound like a great idea but I haven't heard of anyone at all using them. Any reason(s) why? Anybody use them? Pros/cons?
ATB tires: I ride almost exclusively on the street and have city tires, although I want to use the bike for it's intended purposes. What's a good general purpose tire I can take offroad and that has little rolling resistance for a lot of street riding? There's too many choices for someone who's been out of the loop for as long as I have. An experienced opinion would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
