from Exeter, RI Date Reviewed: November 12, 2002
Duration Product Used:
Less than 1 month
Price Paid:
$9.00
Purchased At:
Specialized web site
Strengths:
I can't imagine how you would get a flat with these things on board
Weaknesses:
They are heavy and alter the rolling charactics of the bike. I'd say I have to pedal 30-40% harder on pavement - but for some reason I don't notice it in the woods or on trails.
Bike Setup:
2002 Specialized Rockhopper A1 FS - stock
Bottom Line:
If you ride in an area with alot of thorns (which I do) - you won't have to worry about flats. However - they do make the bike considerably harder to pedal.
