    Powell Challenger Tire Question --2 or 4 ply Carlisle?

    I see Carlisle has a 2 and 4 ply tire that should fit this machine. Does anyone have experience with the 4 ply? Original worn out Generals seem to be a really stiff sidewall, and I was thinking the 4 ply would be a better choice for stability and flat prevention. What are your thoughts? Thanks.

    Powell front suspension

    Classic Pit Racer Article

    I bought this Powell Challenger on ebay as a rolling frame with no engine or drive train. In 2006 I contacted PITRACER magazine looking for a place to race. They asked me to send them a photo and description. Never have raced it, but it did make it on the inside back cover!
