Singlespeed tires
 
Is there a difference thats makes a single speed white wall have less rolling resistance that a regular tire.i have those bontrager blackwall tires that I had on my trek off and put on those chinese cheap white walls and it seems that those white walls are easier to pedal than those blackwalls.

Lot of factors can affect a tires rolling resistance. Inflation, tread, durometer of the rubber, materials of construction, etc, etc.

This thread sucks on so many levels.

Voting for Barack Obama doesn't necessarily mean you like black people.




















































But it does mean you hate crazy women.

having black friends or voting for black people or dating black girls doesnt mean u dont have black people, its just that you are better at faking it than most.

Since you bike is single speed you need to ride it quicker meaning the light will reflect better off the white walls only making you seem faster to a passer by. Its science. Obviously.
