Ok thanks good information!

Btw how much psi? I was running 110 back 105 front on Kenda's for a long time always thinking more is better. Now I run 90 front + back rolls better and that was after hearing how less air equals better rolling instead of other way around like everyone thought. Plus lower psi equals better ride more compliant.
