    Tire balancing necessary?

    Does anyone think precision tire balancing is necessary for ATC tires? Should I save money and mount at my home or pay to have a tire place do it?

    If you have new tires and rims. Plus a true axle. Then it definitely couldn't hurt. But if your bike is anything like mine, your rims will be bent enough that it won't matter. At such a low psi in the tire and not overly excessive speeds you wouldn't notice any difference by doing it. They could actually be doing worse because of the pressure
