Yeah, those 29s were just a try out of curiosity, prone to flats though. So the Speci skin walls are were it's at.

Thank you sir!
Was the same with me, saw some here and on their website and immediately knew I'd had to have one. Also the versatility in this gives me the possibility to get my stable down to 4 :D
