Stupid Things We Have Done

[SadieKate]

Not all bici tires have directional tread. I suspect it's not that huge of an issue in any case, since the contact patch is so small. Probably more of an issue in the wet than in dry conditions. As I said, I didn't notice any handling issues when my rear tire was on backwards. But then again, it was likely underinflated in the field, too.

It's a VERY big issue on mtb tires - wet or dry.
