Thanks for all the feedback. I've got another set I'll put on. Gave it another try, but sure can't get the bead broken with road tools. They mount up easy enough, no tools needed for that.

Not yet, I haven't been riding them because I know I couldn't fix a flat-they're set up with tubes now. I don't like riding without ability to fix roadside flat.

The problem really isn't mounting them, that's easy enough with a tire jack. It's removing. You just can't break the bead once the tire's seated. Guess I'll try to sell them and put some on that can...

Would You Ride Tires You Can't Remove on the Road?

Picked up a Cervelo Caledonia-5, which has almost new tubeless-ready Reserve wheels and Vittoria Rubino pro tires, which currently have tubes in them. Problem is the tires are nearly impossible to...

I'm same age as you and have only been riding about a year on an fx3. You're hoofing it pretty good to ride that fast on the DS. I think you'll probably end up wanting a road bike. I'm ready to...

I don't think anyone can give you an answer. 19s or 20s or Ls or Ss are all going to vary by brand and/or model and no one knows what it feels like to be you. Go sit on some at the dealer if you're...

Bike radar says the Cannondale SuperSix EVO Hi-Mod Disc Dura-Ace Di2 is the best climbing bike, and I bet it can also go fast. I don't know for sure if it will work with your normal shoes, but still,...
