Re: What to use for ballast

Do realize that if you ride in a motor vehicle with wheels, you likely have exposed lead weights on your wheels. Don't lick them.

One 18 lb counter weight we used is a plastic encased lead / sulfuric acid mix. The inspector didn't even count it against our weight limit. The other was a 4"x21"x1" chunk of steel. About 20 lb
