Techniques to avoid flats?   Message List  
Reply | Forward Message #176 of 888 |
I'm looking for tips on preventing flats during my commute to work. I
never get flats when I'm recreationally riding, but the route I
commute to work has a lot of construction traffic, and there's all
kinds of things that stick in my tire! I just bought tire liners but
I'm wondering what advice you all might have... What do you use?
