I thought this was interesting.  Any comments for those of us looking to chose tires for road or mountain?

Cheers

Brilliant insights and information for consideration.

Reminds me of a great article I read a couple of years ago about tire pressure. I found it again, and here are couple fun reads to add to the discussion:

Very Interesting!

I found a link to a different style of trainer in one of the articles... It's $550, and you can get the mini-computer for wattage control for $350.
