Ohhhhhhhhhhhh I get it now. I was a little confused at first. I do not think that what you're feeling is the tire slipping, I think you're just feeling it following the grooves. It's like when I ride over those bridges that go up and down and up and down so boats can float underneath them or whatever they do and the bridge surface is a sort of grate, the bike just feels weird because sometimes it skips over and doesn't want to go in a straight line. It's perfectly normal I just wouldn't full throttle while going around a corner in 1st on that pavement. Maybe I'm wrong but that's what I think is happening to you.


Sag, simply put, is how much the bike squishes down when the rider sits on it. There are some really good messages on this forum about how to set up your sag and such if you just search for them. I would do it for you but, well, I'm just lazy and fat.

Here's the just of it though
