I managed to get my front tire changed today. It wasnt too hard, and it didnt need balancing when I was done. Heck, it even "beaded" up nicely. I suppose the only thing to watch for now is hopefully I didnt ding the bead, and cause a slow leak.
So far so good. The new one is a 110/90/19 D404. The old one was a 100/90/19, Cheng Sh**. The d404 has a much rounder profile. The old one was kinda pointed in the middle of the tire. The new one is less prone to following any grooves in the road.
One little project closer to restored...
