well, yeah, REI...i think that's here. vredesteins, i'll check those out. i was considering rubinos. i'm mostly concerned with durability, so i'll ditch the color idea if i have to.

i actually kind of like my armadillo in back, and i've thought about mixing the colors, but i can't stand the way that looks.

mostly, i just want to be sure that i don't burn through tires really fast and flat all the time. i can't afford that, both from buying tubes and new tires and also from just having my bike laying around.
