Tried the beads ........ Once ! Never again. Vibration at highway speeds sucked. Couldn't maintain the posted 75 mph we have here in TX. RideOn, no issues.

I've had it in my last 2 bikes. I even had a service tech show me a nail in my tire and even said it wasn't leaking. I told him why...Ride On!

I am not a fan for balancing so I use weights, I do use it for puncture sealant.

Any particular reason why you don't like it for balancing?

I used it once without weights, and I followed the Instructions for the proper dosage. For whatever reason it did a poor job balancing. My experience seems to be rare if not unheard of. After that experience, I use weights to absolutely balance, and enjoy the sealant for peace of mind should I pick up a nail.
