Joe Powder Pro did my 21" front and installed my front and rear metzlers with beads.

No complaints here. Ride is great and gotta love the no wheel weight clean look.

been using them for a couple years, no complaints here. Installation could be easier but not a deal breaker.

Yeah I tried using them a couple of weeks ago and had a hell of a time trying to get them into the valve stem. Was chided here on the forum saying I wasn't patient enough. My Indy here locally told me that tube tires have a small lip inside the valve stem that makes putting in the beads very time consuming and difficult, He was right! Its like trying to pick fly **** out of pepper with boxing gloves on IMO. Everybody here say they are great, so good on em. Just didn't work out for me. Good luck.

been using them on a couple of different bikes for about 3-4 years . My bikes have mag wheels so i just put them in all at once when changing the tire . Ordered 1.5mm zirconium silicate beads from www.foxindustries.com for about $7.00 a lb shipped . I did not see them on their web site but if you call them you can place an order.

Ok quick question to verify before I orders as the weights fell off my rear on my 07 Ultra with stock tires, As far as I can tell if I am reading it right I should go 2oz front and 2oz rear. Just seeing several post saying that the touring use 2oz in the front and 3oz in the rear. Anythoughts?
