In less than 10 minutes the tire chains can be installed on any mountain bike giving it superior traction in X-TREME conditions. This is accomplished using sections of galvanized steel machine chain with its links positioned between the tire treads and attached through galvanized copper ovals by 1/16-inch steel aircraft cable. Weighing in at only 17 ounces, they can be easily carried and readily available for quick installation whenever and wherever needed. "If you ride in snow or mud country, mountain bike tire chains may change your life. On snow packed roads, these make riding as safe and secure as on dry pavement. They work better than lugs or studs in anything from slippery granular snow, to frozen tire ruts, to deadly black ice. They also lend an equally mighty bite in mud. Short sections of steel chain loop over the tire tread and are attached at each end to a 1/16- inch hoop of steel aircraft cable. Installation is simple: Just remove the wheel, deflate the tire, slip on the chain, then reinflated. Tire pressure holds them securely on any 1.95 to 2.1-inch model and 26" wheels. Since they don't cross the rim sidewalls, they won't interfere with braking. The chains even fit a bike with close-clearance hydraulic brakes and full fenders.” BICYCLING Magazine *Special* Buy two sets - get one set free! continue shopping... |
