My expectations might be different, but I don't find the Atom to have a harsh ride. I spent 25 years riding tubulars, and wanted the closest ride to a high-end tubular that I could get with tubeless. That's what the Atom delivers. I'm using them with Shimano DuraAce C24 wheels, on an all-steel classic road frame (circa 1986) and have been delighted with the Atom. I'd describe the ride as lively, rather than harsh, certainly nothing that I find uncomfortable on 40-80 mile rides, with or without a lot of climbing. The pairing of the Atom with the C24 is magic, especially on the climbs. I'm not using sealant, since Shimano doesn't approve (voids the wheel warranty), but that hasn't caused me problems, and makes it much easier to fix a flat on the road (I'm averaging 1 flat per year, which isn't bad considering the road litter in NJ).

After 800km the rear tire started leaking through the sidewalls bad enugh that I had to fill it twice a day. I do not want to use sealant because of the mess. Replaced my rear tire with new and it has been fine -- so far. Contacted retailer and he said that leaky sidewalls happen and to add sealant , not what I wanted to hearmize63https://www.blogger.com/profile/02732729321748181860noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3268768344135254042.post-58009954735244075282011-08-04T02:20:04.393-07:002011-08-04T02:20:04.393-07:00Great explanation, thanks for the posting!

Good grip in corners, etc.. That's after just a couple rides, so far so good!Dave Shishkoffhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18310682004065441049noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3268768344135254042.post-58343629303358841472011-03-14T19:52:48.700-07:002011-03-14T19:52:48.700-07:00Thanks for the review, I think I will go with a la...Thanks for the review, I think I will go with a larger tire at my Clyde weight.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18064477146888102474noreply@blogger.com
