Ok first things first no laughing! I have put a paddle tire on my 01 XR100 with a larger rear sprockett (51). The guy who mounted the tire didn't put a rim lock on it. My original rear wheel has a rim lock but the new rear wheel didn't come with one. My question is should I put one on? And secondly just out of curiousity everyone is worrying if the bike can handle the paddle tire I think it should be fine but any input would be appreciated.
That is correct, GA. Albany to be exact. I have already taken it out there once back in June. Boy was that hot. It has rained the night before so early on I didn't have much trouble , but as the day wore on man oh man. That stuff was like riding on sugar. I just really don't think it would that hard on the bike. I mean the most a human can stand the heat is about an hour. What I meant was as far as turning the paddle tire. Alot of people have speculated on the abuse of having to turn the paddles. Its only a six paddle tire.
