I used Gators for a few years on my training wheels, until I got a flat and realized how hard a Gator is to change. I could not remove the tire from the rim to change the tube. Had to call my wife and have her rescue me. Still couldn't get the tire off the rim by any conventional means so I ended up having to cut the tire off the rim, which was a chore in and of itself. It's a tough tire every way imaginable... protection, and getting on or off. This was with a set of Hed Jet 6.
Then I had another set of training wheels with Gators on them and it was also quite the process to remove the tires. This was with a Bontrager Aura 5.
No thanks. I just use GP 4000s for training and racing now.
Those of you that use them to slow you down crack me up. Like it f'n matters how fast you're going in training.
