I don't have the issue, or links, or anything, but I have read that MCN had an article a couple years ago where they tested these things and said they did nothing to help.

I remember there were some different ones that didn't work but I was just at Ron Ayers getting my bike inspected and one of the mechanics were putting them in his bike. What I'd like to see is a demo video,showing an out of balance tire on the balance machine,install the beads and poof balanced tire! I've never seen concrete proof that this works...

You'd think they'd have some sort of video evidence of something this revolutionary actually working.

It makes no difference what the tire is mounted to. Chop, sportbike, car, truck...
These fucking things work like you would not believe!!!! Take my fuckin word!! I have ran these all year in both bikes. I want to run them in every tire I own. Tiggers attached files explain it. I think of it as the beads spin out to the interior imperfections of the tire, fills in those imperfections and balances the tire. Understanding that it is the tire that is out of balence not the rim. I believe Drewpy has these in the RC as well. |
