How Do All Wink

I am using and loving the BZ's Limes front and back, I am fairly new to this and i have not tried the Lemon, Lime combo or the Lime, Pink combo yet, my reasons for not running these combos are:
The pavement around here is not brilliant and goes from small patches of new silky smooth tarmac to pot hole ridden stone chip surface, but the main surface is ok though.
If I where to have the Lemon, Lime combo I think the front would be a lttle hard for the rough patches, and the Lime, Pink combo I would lose out wityh the soft rear pink on the nice silky smooth sections, so this is why for the moment I am running Limes all round as a good compromise.
Taking in to account I am new to this I may change my thinking when my new Walkabout turns up and I have the bennetts / tracker setup on it.

Does anyone think I may be loosing out on performance somewhere by not using a Lemon, Lime or Lime, pink combo?

Take care,
Barry Wink

Hi Barry!
I'm on UK roads too, and I've got the Lemon/Lime combo. It's lovely on the smooth but quite rough on the rough. I tried some 75a Gumballs and they were lovely on the rough roads but felt a bit dead and slow compared to the Bigzigs. But I want to get a softer set for the rough roads... and there are lots of them as you know!! I want Black Ops or the Retro Reflex, so it's pink BigZigs at 77a or pink Speedvents at 75a. Can't escape the pinkiness of it all, but not sure which will be best for me. 77a or 75a... Can anyone advise or should I just choose according to which looks prettiest in pink? Wink

????? How much difference does 2a make?

Where are you based in England ?

Thanks for your comments on the state of brithish roads Wink

They are not that bad really Wink

honest guvner, with the ammount of road tax the government gets every year and the local council taxes going through the roof, the roads over here should be as smooth as glass and in better condition than a formula 1 racetrack Laughing

I have just ordered another set of BZ's limes for my new walkabout and I will buy some Lemons and Pinks so I can experiment mixing it up.

Take care,
Barry Wink

You should try the Blue Speed Vents Black Ops in 77mm. They are a great all around wheel. They figure in at 79a.
