  1. Getting back on the road. Looking for 23c clinchers to train. 165 pounds, fairly smooth roads. Don't
    feel like spending the same for road bicycle tires as I do for my Honda CRF450 ($50 each).

    What can I expect to find in a kevlar bead that has a good reputation for around $25 each delivered
    (need a set)? Am I delusional? Should I just stick with the Michelin Axial Pro and bite the bullet?
    Can ya help a clueless brutha out? Thanks.

    Ritchey makes a really nice foldable road tire, very Michelin-esque for $25 per. Look around locally
    or we could send you some...plus shipping, of course(about $5 for two)

  3. The price and quality/durability seem right on. Stay away, or try to find them?? They sound like a
    great training tire, a touch more burly than the Axial Pro. Anyone know a source?
