Re: VersaWheel vs Traction wheels
Has anyone done a head to head comparison of VersaWheels versus Colsons? Our drivetrain is set up to make wheel swaps completely painless. If we can gain traction and lose weight in exchange for having to buy a few different sets of wheels, I think that's a worthy tradeoff. However, Colsons have proven tough to beat in terms of traction.
