Tire Balancers

[lopicma]

I have been experiencing tire bounce lately and wondering if anyone has used these tire balacer beads that go inside the tires?

I am not sure if i lost any lead tire weights - not paying attention... :(

Have you hit any potholes lately or anything that may cause your wheel to go out of round?

That is possible. Michigan is not known for its smooth roads.
If so, it was not hard enough for me to remember (like an impending crash or anything). Because I am a fairly new rider (less than 3 years) I tend to ride like a "granny". :xyxnervou

If you aren't sure, have it checked. If the bike is new, have the dealer check it, shouldn't cost you anything.

I haven't used the beads, but I'd suggest double checking that the rim is true. Once the rim is proven true balancing the rubba should be a cake walk.

If you've changed a bicycle tire this should present no added confusion.....
