If either one of us could have been a fly on the wall for those conversations lol. I know I can get pretty cynical when I let some of those kids know what time of day I think it isi know what you mean. the crappiest bike store on the planet ("two wheels one planet" in costa mesa) tried that on me. the guy said the 2.125 would be fine on my 2.3's, and i told him the reason i'm buying new tubes is because i know for a fact they don't, since my bike is hopping down the street right now.
he told me my rims were probably out-of-true.
idiots.
