    So I was able to pick up a rim and tire for $50. Now I have to decide what tire to go with. I have a Valkyrie that had a CT on it when I bought it and I did not like it. My biggest issue was when at low speeds on uneven terrain it pushed the bike all over. Being 5'7" with a short inseam it was unnerving especially with a passenger. It is even harder for me to touch on the F6. I guess what I am asking is does anyone have a suggestion on a tire that would minimize this issue? I am thinking the narrower the tire the better? My intentions are to have this rim/tire for longer highway trips to help my elite4's last longer. My hopes are I will like the CT and not have to worry about spending $200+ on rear tires anymore!

    I have the Dunlop Snow tire...very happy...look on the Dark Side section for more information.

    Sounds like you were not running enough air? I run 32# in this one. Good Luck !!!!
