They're just well trained STM! Natural position on road is sideways... you'll get used to looking through the side windows eventually :mrgreen:

Back from O/S and have had to order a set of tyres for my NB8A rims. After your constant praise of the Azenis' Stan, I've just ordered myself a set of RT615s. Get them next week!

What profile do you have on them STM? I found the stock NB8B has a larger rolling diameter than the NA6...
