I have my EXP! Ok, my LBS has it and I'm traveling, so I don't really have it.
From googling around it seems that the EXO tires are a weak spot. I've already had one pinch flat on my acoustic Giant Fathom, so I know that this is real. I will convert to tubeless for certain, but I've also read about the foam inserts, like the CushCore Pro?
Is that a reasonable upgrade?
I'll be riding in southern NH and we have lots and lots of rocks.
Thanks!
