' '" "t , Are you running your Balloon Tires hard or soft? . THE original idea back of balloon tires if the added comfort of riding on a soft cushion of air. Every extra pound of pressure that must be put into a balloon tire to make it serviceable takes away just so much from the cushioning.

Because- They have the new "Low-Pressure Tread," which prevents early and uneven tread wear' And they are built of Latex-treated Web Cord, which gives maximum strength and flexibility.
