I dunno. I guess I just don't see the point in changing it. Not slamming anyone for having an opinion!
I know I'd have a hard time trusting a plugged tire, especially a plugged front. Guys I know run with max leans on plugged tires. It really depends on where the nail is. I may remove the wheel, remove the tire and patch it (safer than a plug), then just run cautiously.
I'll have to see. My wife wanted to decorate the house tonight, so I'll check the bike tomorrow.
Thanks for the ideas and opinions everyone.
