  1. What's the best tire/tire interface on a two wheeler?

    Do you want a little softer, squishier tires providing more
    of a contact area, or do you want hard tires for better
    contact that way?

    I've heard a Semcycle engineer say that the bottom tyre
    should be at 'regular' pressure to support the weight, and
    the top tyre should be softer so that it folds around the
    bottom tyre. That should help to avoid that the tyres 'run
    off' each other.

    If slip occurs while the tyres still track right and you
    can't bring them closer (are any twowheelers adjustable
    in this respect?) you would have to increase the top
    tyre's pressure.
