ABOUT THE EPISODEMatt breaks out a good rant when they discuss some of what we're creating for the future. Matt also confirms that 650b x 47 tires are not good. Pens are important. So are breaks that continue working. Is racing breeding monsters? Don't do this… with this tire. What happens when tires explode with 12 ounces of sealant in them? How many psi can customers get their tires up to? Matt may be shitting on the manual machine – he explains. Kenny shares the best thing possible.
