$20 tyre shot to Hell! Didn't even have 200 miles on it! |
|
Sounded like a .38 when it blew out. I don't know what's worse, having to go buy a new tyre or the mile walk back home in my sox. No way I was gonna walk home in my spud shoes...So I had to ride the bike with the too-low handlebars, instead...Ouch!

My feet are tender this AM....Guess that could be a new penance to Velocio....Walk a mile in your sox pushing a bike w/a flat and your SPD shoes slung over the top tube....:-)

3. That's what you get for buying cheap tires. |

They suck. You get what you pay for. Next time get Michelins.
