I put my Snoqualmie Pass tires on and will go on a ride into the wild with them on Sunday. The most difficult part is putting the little metal ends into the plug on my dyno hub. Great lessons to learn. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners

I had 50ish tires on my Sam with Paul racers. No fenders, but I seem to recall that there was room to spare. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group. To unsubscribe from this group and stop receiving emails from it, send an email
