Disc-only rims vs. disc/v rims
I have disc-only rims (WTB) on one bike, and disc/v rims
(Bontrager) on another bike. Seemingly, tires mount on more easily on the disc-only rims than the disc/v rims. Is this generally the case? -- - Zilla Cary, NC (Remove XSPAM) |

Which would mean that the tyres are easier to mount. I think Nick |
