Even small shops in small towns should have tires that will work. The EX is an excellent bike for self-contained touring. We can custom set up your Tour Easy with wide tires and high gears or narrow tires and medium gears if that best suits your riding. It is the faster of the two Easy Racers seats but may leave your back sweaty as it is unventilated. It uses a Lycra covered foam seat base but an airy mesh back on an aluminum frame.
Most riders consider the cool back more comfortable, particularly in hot weather.
We stock both. A Tour Easy, GRR or TI Rush can be switched from one seat to the other without modification.
