Update : I pulled the Maxxis and installed some Kenda 1.9 semis . Had a flat on the rear yesterday with the Maxxis and decided while I had the wheel off , I’d swap them out .
It pedals easier now , but when a friend invited me to go riding with him on a cart path this morning, I chickened out taking my Cruiser 1 because of some hills I remembered on the route . I took my Specialized Hardrock I’ve got setup as a Cruiser but with gears . I did steal Brooks Imperial off my Black C1 and it helped me make the 9.5 miles . After the ride , it wasn’t as hilly as I remember, I should have taken one of the C1’s . Maybe next time .
may put the Maxxis’s on a Fuji frame I converted to Single speed and build it back into a Cruiser.
Longest distance I’ve ridden in four years . Hopefully I’m getting back in ride shape .
edit: I put the Maxxis Hookworms back on and decided to install a three speed Nexus hub .
