Post by: Peter J on February 29, 2012, 10:24 PM: The reason I'd like kevlar bead is becuase I've been told it reduces rotational weight and is better for doing "trix"

The weight difference is fairly minimal but light tyres do make the whole bike feel lighter to ride

I've tried a few different tyres for park use but always go back to mac2 folding tyres, but that's just me... :-\
