Grapeape,

The Dyna Beads can be installed thru the valve stem, just remove the core and use a small funnel, if any get stuck just flick the stem and they should fall in.

Yep,

The tire was off anyway so I went the more frugal route with the Airsoft pellets. End result is the same, smooooooooooooth :thumbup:

What exactly does putting the beads in your tire do?

Balances the tire without using stick on or clamp on lead.

Check out the FAQ's on the dyna bead site http://www.innovativebalancing.com/news.htm

Apparently, the Airsoft pellets do the same thing. You just can't install them thru the valve stem since they are larger diameter than dyna beads. I got the idea from other posts and tried them and they work. My ride is smooth as silk.
