Kenda Slicks W/Friction Drive

[Albula vulpes]

Just a heads up.....................................................


If you are running a friction drive and are considering the Kenda Slicks that Sports Authority and Dic.ks Sporting Goods sell for $9.99 a pop, becareful and take the roller pressure off the tire before storing overnight and do not curb jump them. I blew out the bead on the sidewall today pounding some pavement and landing hard off of a curb.

Ohhh Yea...................................

Another reason why curb jumping is not good on a friction drive. Turns out I cracked one of the rack bolt holes on the rear support stays on the bicycles frame. So the friction rear support stay bolt fell out. I'm on my second and last hole. No more curb jumping and hot doggin for me. For now anyway.....
