YA and a to put on...you have to cut off your old tires smear dish soap on your rim and hammer them on, also when you hit a puddle you loose all traction you can hear your motor rev really high...actually you dont even haev to hit a puddle if you het wet ground it does it too. _________________ Ignore this^^ |

My guess is it is a friction drive between the motor and tire and the slightest bit of moisture on the wheels kills the grip between the tires and motor. Am I right Hack? |

YA actullay i think it mostly looses friction with the road. the motor has a spindle with little riges on it so it digs into the tire...and every time i ride it i make sure that the motor is pressing hard agains the back wheel...The tires dont slip on the rims once you get them on the only way they are gunna move is by cutting them off . I was out riding about 1 hr agoo and i almost fell off going about 15 I hit a wet strip on my street that had a bit of moss on it and both tires lost traction and i almost got thrown off . _________________ Ignore this^^ |

That's sweet man, finally talked your dad into it I guess.
