Friday, November 14th, 2008

650b.com took delivery of brand spanking new Schwalbe Racing Ralph 650bx2.25 tires.
If you remember the photos from Interbike I also had some concerns about the staff’s knowledge of 650b and it’s purpose.  I’m very excited for these tires and think they will be a great all arounder due to the volume and tread.  I really […]
