LOL, I'll avoid that...

I do the $9 and I get more miles than i can keep track of without needing repair. I also only need to pump maybe every week to 2 weeks usually. Really so few problems that I honestly forget and consider tire/tube a non-issue most of the time and I rarely have a noticeable change in pressure. Oh, FYI I'm a 165-185lb rider over my 5yr or so timeline of using Michelins.
