I'm pretty excited. I decided few weeks ago to get a 280 kit from G&S Cycles.
It should take 3-4months before I have installed. I asked Eric to take his time and make something special...
I was wondering if other 280 warriors could share their riding/technical experience on the new phat tire.
I've been watching endless times this video. I can't wait to ride my baby with that monster on...
The regular 200 tire looks so thin compared to the 280 one, when they ride side by side.
I will include below any technical details other 280 owners reported.
Techical Observations from Other 280 Owners
Stronger pull toward the outer edge of the road, in fast turns - confirmed by Reddog, Judge2008, slammed280
Reduced tire wear - confirmed by Judge2008, slammed280
* Judge2008 confirmed that after 3,000 miles, the tire still looks like new.
Solid handling with either hard or soft riding style - confirmed by Judge2008, slammed280
Increased lean angle - confirmed by slammed280
* slammed280 confirmed that you cannot lean as much as you would normally do with a 200 tire.
