Good looking tire. Did you take off the brake disc to keep from dinging up during dismounting & mounting ?

Well you know I bought this one cause you run one and our style of riding is 'bout the same... We may ride up to Deals Gap tomorrow to hook up with Duffy and The North Georgia gang. Not sure yet Greg is having some problems with his bike he's working on it now... As for the Raptor I took it for a spin this evening... I dig it  :cooldude:

How does tht handle grooves in concrete? How about triple didgits? I'm in the market and that v tire they talked about is way to salty for me.
