Inventory, and to replace the tire....you have to replace the rim as well. Wonder if they make them in 24's?

I call on the R&D people in Greenville. The rims would not be replaced. The delay is in sufficient safety testing, achieving acceptable wear, and handling / ride at highway speeds.

As long as they don't wear out the rim.
They better test those out for about 10 years first.
