Default -31*F vs. Battleaxe BT-016

As a warning for any of you in COLD cimates, these tiers will shatter in the cold. I was playing with my old tire, cords showing through, and i bounced it on the ground... i heard the unmistakable sound of somthing cold shattering, it was the tire. The rubber shattered in 3 different places, leaving the cords holding it together. I guarentee I will not b touching myn bike until the temps rise, would suck to shatter my good tires. To cold outside to take pics yet, but I will take some and post, assuming I can figure out how.

Is that negative 31 degreesF, as in 31 below zero? Yeah - I wouldn't even be outside playing with it.

Yes, that is below zero. All those wimps in NY crying about single digit temps and 30 below wind chills are just cry babies. We had 31 below zero F at my house and 30+ mph winds, u don't even bother calculating wind chill, frostbite sets in in seconds not minutes.
