    After 2 days frustration getting a tubeless racing ralph to go up I’ve now noticed that the rotation arrow is pointing the wrong way!

    Looking at the tread design though it looks pretty symmetrical front to back. Is it worth the hassle of switching it?

    Seriously. I don’t care how much it cost, because it works and it has improved my life significantly!

    but the wrong rotation, think it will be on your mind all the time nagging away? Am I losing grip or not so fast because the tyres on the wrong way around? Oh the nighmares…..

    I had a similar issue for a while recently; I suspect it made no difference whatsoever, but every time I felt slow on the road or it lost grip up a steep bit I wondered whether it was because the tyre was on backwards. I swapped it round; it’s easy with a lemonade bottle reservoir.

    Now though when I’m slow on the road or rubbish up a hill I have to face the fact that it’s just me being crap. Bah!

    My geax tyres have

    Traction <==> Speed

    So its a win either way I reckon!
