Cyclists

Remember after I got myself a “plus tire” bike I threatened I’d get a pair for the girls?

I did.

They’re pretty cool.

The bikes aren’t bad either.

They definitely instill confidence over the bumps and anything else sketchy.

First thing I did was convert the tires to tubeless. It saved some rotating mass, and made what was already amazing traction even better.

Overall the bikes are still heavy for their size. I debated a bit with a friend over going super light/small vs plus size and soft. In the end you see what won. I’ll try and make some efforts to lighten up, but there’s only so much you can do.

What matters is that the girls love them and love riding them. We’ve been out a couple of times and plan more this week. Obviously the summer has a lot in store for us.

In addition we’ve been riding more around town.

Obviously a great way to see new things, get around and get exercise.
