Oh, there goes the Florida in me talking. To clear it up, there's a lot of retired communities/neighborhoods and then there are hospices...retirement homes.
Explaining rhetoric = bad joke
Them tube liners working well?

I bought one of these for my helmet, preparing for fall riding.
Also four of these, I'm feeling like the ones I have are going to snap soon.

Word, I already feel the **** storming coming. The cheapest decent cog + lockring I could find would have run me about 50 dollars with shipping and I couldnt afford it. I've got a flip flop hub so Im just going to attach it to my off side and test it out. If I dig 17T i'll buy the surly + dura ace lock ring.

For the fG: 17t eighthinch cog w/their current coupon. Came to $10 shipped.
For the FR: Went to wider 28" (710mm) bars 3mos. ago, they're no longer wide enough. Got some 29.5" (745mm) Sunline V1 risers on the way.

They're taking the worry out of riding. Now I ride over everything without hesitation! Rocks, glass, nails, cats, you name it!
But really the only way I could really test to see if they work is if I actually ran over nails or something that punctures my tire. I'll call it a success if I go for a month without a flat though. So far it's been only a few days.

I just recently bought and swapped out a few components on my Pista Concept. I'm really liking the new Arione Versus saddle...
- San Marco Rolls Saddle -> Fi'zi:k Arione Versus
- Thompson Elite SM-E126 -> Thompson Elite SM-E112
- Vittoria Rubino Pro-> Continental GP4000S
- Deda Celeste Tape -> Fi'zi:k Mircrotex Tape
- Sugino 75 46t Chainrring -> Sugino Zen Racing 49t Chainring

Yup. I have a stock Formula lockring and people say it's a hub stripper, so I went with the EI.

I don't know about the formula being a hub stripper. It strips itself though. I tore off 3 edges of the 4 notches getting it off for my Durace lockring. And I have a proper lockring tool and know how to use it. The aluminum was just too soft.
