really loved the setup and last year bought a set of Velocity P35 rims and set up the Super Moto's with gorilla tape and this is a perfect setup for my commuting and again no problems....the wider rims with the wider tires really ride nice
you have to experiment to find the sweet spot with the air pressure, mine is around 35 rear and 30 front with the supermotos.....rolling resistance is minimal and very cushy ride
Thx for the heads up! Does sound good those Mavic 717 rims in combination with the ghetto tubeless setup
