Finally got some miles on the new rear Kuhmo.

Sweet ride, handles better than the Bridgestone 205 I had on there before and I liked that one. Still need to get it out on the high speed roads to really test it but so far, best ride yet. Running 36 psi for now, if it handles good overall at that pressure I'll not change it. So now the old girl has new rubber front and rear, new front bearings, new guts in the final with good lube throughout. Rides and sounds good again.

Sounds like a winning combination, any groove grabbing with that bad boy ?

Not so far. There's a bad spot a couple blocks up the street and the 205 used to bump steer through it, causing the bike to swerve slightly. So yesterday on my way home I purposely rolled across it, didn't faze it at all. I'll be taking some different roads over the next few days, some are really the pits to ride over. We'll see how it does then but so far I'm really liking this tire, it doesn't feel or handle like the usual c/t.

Try 28 to 32 lbs... you'll save the center....
