Hi Neil,

Thanks, great news about the new size, although I'd prefer they'd keep the taller 27.5 size and just add the extra 200lb load capacity. I like the larger size, but find them a little soft when the van is loaded up. I may see about getting two of them to keep me going, as the plan is to upgrade to 15" EV rims eventually.
