My pleasure Van,
Though, it would be true the increased traction definitely allows a greatly improved sense of "I can handle this environment more safely", it is also a softer, more yielding ride. The sidewalks near me have cracks and height drops which previously felt jarring despite my knees slightly bent "shock absorber posture", and now it is like there is a high quality comfort mat under my feet, shielding me as I ride. I do want to state that I have not confirmed what the shipped tire pressure actually is from the dealer, which could be attributed, but from the first glide I could feel it was positively different than the stock tire by a wide margin.
