I have taken off and replaced tires many times in my lifetime (but none in the last year) I don't think I need the practice and don't want to take the (agreed very) small risk of remounting with a pinched tube, etc. Maybe its superstious behavior, no flats in 900mi, don't touch it.
The only reason the LBS mounted it originally is because they do this as courtesy with new tire purchase. They fixed the rear spoke since I don't have a freewheel puller.
OK, I probably will remount it, but I get caught up in so many other life activities I haven't prioritized it yet.
Anyway, the question is more does it make a notable difference, just curious what others think or have experienced.
