No worries, I'm not offended. I'm running 110 - 120 ppi in both tires.
It was the funky rubber rim band that caused the flats. Since then, I've had the rims taped with cloth rim tape, except for a time I picked up a piece of glass, so far so good. (Probably just jinxed myself there.)
Couple errors in my initial posts. Kona has been making roadies for as long as they have been in the business. They just didn't produce any last year for reasons unknown to us, the general public.
Secondly. After a couple of stem changes I believe I am closer to a more comfortable position for me. I figured after a few solid rides, I'd start experimenting with different rises and lengths. So far I think I've got it.
That's all for now. Gotta go for a ride tomorrow. Its the last day of my holidays before returning to work.
