I got a 2nd hand front tyre off LooseBruce the other night...

Now I know he's quick (nice guy too)... but I have to say this is the one and only tyre I have ever seen with a single chicken strip on it... just the one.

He's obviously riding with a considerable bias. What makes me laugh is the location of said chicken strip... not the left, nor the right...

:niceone: :niceone: :niceone: IT'S DOWN THE MIDDLE OF THE FUCKEN TYRE! :niceone: :niceone: :niceone:

I asked him about it and (I quote) "the tyre's not usually on the ground when I'm going in a straight line".

If that's the comb, who's the cock?

In that case, it'd have to be a damned big cap, if you're meaning me ;)

na na not meaning anyone, only having a laugh (a roosters quill is called a cocks comb, is all)

but I do find the chickens are more likely to strip if you have a decent bit of rubber on your cock...hahaha

Hey Bruce - tyre is now fitted, fork seals redone and mate it's a million bucks better than it was. Bastard corners like it's on rails (which is pretty impressive for something the size of the RF)

Remind me to return the favour some time.
