Yep. You guys caught me.

I bought these tires, and when I found out that they're trash, one single thought popped into my head:

"Hey. I can make everything feel better if I go on the interwebz and tell everyone that I'm tickled to death at how fun these tires are to ride."

Whatever. If you don't want to buy any, then don't buy any.

Besides... you're wrong about the money part. I didn't spend $136.00 + shipping. I spent over $2000 building a whole new bike!
