Another highly rated product is called Ride On, which is both a tire balancer and sealer. I've used it on my last two sets of tires.

I have Dyna Beads with weights on my current tire, Pirelli Night Dragon, It is the smoothest my bike has rolled in 55000 miles. Will put them in my next tire. I think i may try the beads from a company called Fox industries....a lot cheaper than innovative. The beads are a bit bigger but same results is what i hear.

 

How do you figure out the amounts to be used in the tire's?

 

2 oz rear 1 oz front.

 

09StreetGlider...How did your 407 rear wear? Even and cupping on the outside? Thanks.....Jerry

Notgrownup.....I would think tire size would come into play for the amount....180 vs 200 etc.

 

Check the Dynabeads website for the proper amount of weight. It is all layed out there. I believe it says if you have up to a 120mm tire 1oz after that 2 oz for front tires. I think that is what I read for the 130 I am running up front. And 2 oz for rear tires. I have not put the beads in yet, but I did not have them balance the new tires that I just got. We'll give it all a try.

 

I've ran 2oz front and rear and love them, smooth ride no ugly wheel weights

 

I used the beads when I got my new wheels because I didn't want to deal with those ugly-*** wheel weights. They seem to work perfectly and I think my tires are lasting longer. Even if it's me just dreaming about the better wear the balance can't be beat.

 

I just had my tires mounted to new rims. My rear tire has 3.5 oz of weights attached, dyna bead recommends 2 oz in a 180 tire.

I am guessing that I need to put at least 3.5 oz of dyna beads in the tire for it to balance properly.

Has anybody else had to add more than the recommended 2 oz?

 

No, that's not the case at all. Remember weights are fixed. Dyna Beads spread throughout the tire from centrifugal force. You don't need to match Dyna Bead quantity with a known fixed weight.
