Really? How come. I was gonna go with the 2CT's.

Sport rider gave the 2cts the highest ranking out of the different brands they tested, over the dcIII, bt-016, contisport attack and a few others. The test was based around tires that can be used street and track.

Correct, but you have to find out how much of that travel is being used by the bikes static weight, and then again with the weight of the rider/gear on the bike.

Wait...that made sense somehow...

That's exactly what I said. Without lifting the bike you don't know how much the weight of the bike compresses the suspension.

Anyway, glad you got your answer.

So,

g_{\mu \nu} = \eta_{\mu \nu} + fk_{\mu}k_{\nu} \!.

f = \frac{Gr^2}{r^4 + a^2z^2}\left[2Mr - Q^2 \right].

k_{x} = \frac{rx+ay}{r^2 + a^2}..

k_{y} = \frac{ry-ax}{r^2 + a^2}..

k_{z} = \frac{z}{r}..

k_{0} = 1.

And (with "r" being my weight with gear,

1 = \frac{x^2+y^2}{r^2 + a^2} + \frac{z^2}{r^2}

Taking into account,

A_{\mu} = \frac{Qr^3}{r^4 + a^2z^2}k_{\mu}

\vec{E} + i\vec{B} = -\vec{\nabla}\Omega\,

\Omega = \frac{Q}{\sqrt{(\vec{R}-i\vec{a})^2}} \,

with my weight of 275 lbs means that I need to add one line of pre-load on my front forks and subtract two threads on my shock.

Thanks,Guys!!!
