    I think it has to do with not enough fiber/glitter/solids to block the hole. My HD and Rock Razor did the same thing (I'm using some other funny green sealant), I've since retired the HD, but the Rock Razor is still on the back. The Razor, beside doing that, was battling to seal some cuts I had from a Downhill event, so opened it up and found the sealant fibers had congealed into two balls. Added some more sealant, making sure to hold it upside down to let the fibers out 1st and no issues since. No wet patches either!

    I was honestly considering this stuff last week when i was shopping for sealant, it looked the business, but I was mounting a Maxxis DHF non TL tire, so caved and went with stans for the latex. Tire mounted no issues and is holding pressure perfectly Will give this Ryder a go next time!

    I agree with the traction issue. That goes for both acceleration and cornering, nothing new. But as "IQ of 2" said, there is a trend now towards wider rims resulting in softer + wider tyres which assits with the much needed traction. Admittedly I don't see it ever getting to the extreme's we see in MTB due to rolling resistance. I can definitly see why things are progressing the way they are.

    Exactly and yet they still fit excellent brakes? You have no complicated wizardy, saftely belt, or enclosed cockpit yet still want to run on brakes designed yonks ago? Whats speeds do you get clock on some of the downhill sections? You are riding a bike, heaven forbid you actually ride it and move your weight around to aid acceleration, braking and cornering

    All this skeptisim is counter intuitive to me. If you wanted to build a racing car, stopping quick would be just as import as going fast. If you scared of otb, go on some mtb skills clinics to get your weight back during braking!

    I'm in the same boat :/ @Peach I'm assuming stage 5 will open?

    I must say, order 3 pairs 2 weeks ago, and I simply love love them! Will be ordering again soon! They make great work socks!

    If I had the money and fitness for stage races I'd probably buy this, it's just beautiful!

    I feel old, was a couple age groups above Dodd many years ago (~12), and he used to give the older guys a good run for their money!
