Default pros/cons: Balancing Beads inside tires

So, whadooyathink? I've seen Dynabeads and Counteract brands.

I am thinking of trying them.

well, it looks like I'm not getting any takers on THIS forum!
I found a lot of comments elsewhere! And now I am definitely going to try the CounterAct brand!

If you have factory non spoke wheels and top tier tires drive it without them first. This quality new stuff needs little if any correction. I have no correction on mine.

Been running Dyna Beads for years. My experience is they are far better than weights.

We balance with Dyna Beads exclusively and love them. I run them in all 3 of my bikes and love the super smooth ride. It seems that the mileage I get on my tires is better with them as opposed to regular weights as well. http://www.ebay.com/sch/hogprowheels...p2047675.l2562

Thanks for all the input! I'm anxious to get to work. I'm running spokes, so I get to feed them thru the valve stem!
(The worse part is the prerequisite. > > > cleaning up the garage first!!)

It is easy to feed them through before the tire is mounted but once it is mounted it takes a little more finesse with a tube or without.
