Geax Saguaro Tire Reviewed by Mountain Bike Action
In the market for some fresh rubber? The fine folks at
Mountain Bike Action have a great review on the Geax Saguaro 29'er TNT tire. TNT stands for tube/no tube compatible. From the review,
it appears this is a tubeless tire that can easily be mounted with a hand pump rather than the traditional need for a compressor. Hmmm, handy indeed.
