X-tra easy to install/remove on our rims: no tools needed! Mileage on the rear of our tandem is usually around the 2,000 mile mark; more miles on the front.We live in the desert in AZ, so lotsa oportunities for flats . . . great puncture resistance.
Pedal on TWOgether!

Wow - that's quite an endorsement. I'm back to getting confused again.
