Title: NuSkool Graphites .....
Post by: YGT on November 19, 2006, 02:51 PM
Just out of interest, does anyone here ride those new school skyway graphites, and do they still have the problem of not being able to run high pressure tires?
I would like some for my street bike, but cant risk having to roll 40psi tires.

I am used to 100psi +
so any less than 80psi is going to be aproblem for me, and i am still scared that the tires will blow off the rims.

As long as you use newschool tires then over 80 psi should be ok  :daumenhoch:

does anyone know if they come with flip flop sizes?

Yep, the pair that I have are flip flop hubs, not sure of the sizes though as I have it set up on my old school ride with a 44-16 at the moment so I just have a standard size freewheel on it  :daumenhoch:
