OP here. So after people go through all these hoops with Synergy rims and get the tire mounted perfectly in the shop, what do you do out on the road when you get a flat? Swearalot & hope you get home safely? I hate the choices - give up flexible ties; or drop $300+ on rims, spokes, nipples, shipping, and taxes - plus the hastle of building two wheels, which I am painfully slow at.
