True, but, if you are most definetelly the most famous trials rider outside and inside the sport, wouldnt you want your bike to look better than a turd? Its like a nascar in a race with the number painted on the side with a brush, its just wierd.
Most likely your running to low pressure, never good to run less than 12 psi or so. Most of the time like 15-18 on mods. If you can get a monty whitewall tire, they resist PF's extremely well.
WOW, I just put them on. Im running 6 psi with a cheapy 20 inch tube on the rear, bottomed it out like 3 times yesterday doing gaps, no pinch flats. MONTY REMAKE THE WHITEWALLS!
Maguras are better. I had a bad experience with them when i first started riding trials, so i always swore by vees. I just got a rear maggie this week, its insanely better! Soooo much better bite, and it dosent lack any of the hold of vees.
Wellgo mg1's. If you can get the ti axle, much weight savings. But even without they are by far the best for durability, weight and grip, all put together in one.
