Too finicky pressure-wise in fully-loaded touring mode for me. Have been set up with tubes. If they have a hundred miles on them I'm an old lady. $100 plus whatever shipping is. Probably around $10.

Here they are mounted on my All Rounder:

Hey, Craig! Great price on those. Someone will enjoy them. Out of curiosity, in "fully-loaded touring mode," does your weight flux often? If so, I can see the challenge, but if not, on the off chance you haven't, you may want to try adding 5-15 psi. I notice when I grocery get that my ride is near the load limit of my normal psi. If I pump it up, perfecto. I don't usually, because then I have to remember to let it out again, or end up scratching my head on my the supple's gone. Grin. I'm kinda stupid that way.

With abandon,

Patrick

Hey Jim, someone sent an "I'm interested" reply but he hasn't hit the Send button at Paypal yet. You're next in line.

If these go to the other buyer, Jim, I have a little-used pair I can sell you. Busy today, but I'll try to pull them out later. I found them too bouncy on pavement and got sick of fiddling with the pressure. I think they're in perfect shape but need to look at them.

I'm like Ian, Deacon, (not Ian Deacon). Found them too bouncy and didn't like looking for the perfect pressure to fit conditions. That's what I meant by finicky. Decided I'm going with Gravel King SK's or Natchez Pass.

Gotcha, Craig. Bouncy I could not abide. One suggestion for those still trying to dial supple tires in: start with your regular pressure for the same size tire (or some other version of likely a bit more than needed), let time deflate it slowly until you feel it too low, check the pressure, add 5 psi.

With abandon,

Patrick
