Do these people have a death wish, or are they both very small people? I
found the 28-406 Conti GP to be a marginal tire on the REAR of a single
recumbent, and a 32-406 Primo Comet to be marginal on the front of a
RANS Rocket. One decent hit on a pothole or a larger piece of gravel at
speed on the Screamer will have the Conti GP pinch flatted, and the bike
will almost certainly go down after that. Yikes.
