Hello Kevin,
The front tire gets it's heaviest load while braking and the rear when
accelerating. The tires are built up to optimize the anticipated load
direction.
My compliments again on the gorgeous loopframe .

Hey,
I just had some new tires mounted. Being that both tires are directional

and supposed to be fitted to the front I had the rear mounted backwards.

I reassured my friend mounting them that this was the way it was
supposed to be but for the life of me I cannot remember why. Could
anyone tell me?

allot of tanks.
