Yup. I like the good old days of "mushy" rides. Like when everyone was using a 75 series car or truck tire, like a 205/75/14 or a 235-75-15, so when the roads decayed to "crappy" status you could hit those potholes and bumps and not dislocate a tie rod or ball joint or clamp your butt cheeks. My 1997 Buick has a 60 series which makes the ride worse than my 1991 C1500 with the 75 series tires. Now cars and trucks are using a 45 series tire, or worse, so it's like driving down railroad tracks on our crappy roads. I get used to riding on lower profile tires in the Philippines or terrible roads so when I come home and drive my old truck, I know what I am missing. Waaaaaaaaaaaa! Ha-Ha! I wonder if the fatter tires on bicycles give a nicer ride just like on a car or truck? I am using two ebikes with a 20 x 1.95 and 26 x 1.95 tires. Don't know if I can go much fatter with my wheels?I've got a gell seat cushion on top of a Selle Royal Spring Seat, mounted on an NCX Suspension Seatpot, mounted on a full suspension ebike with downhill forks and 6 inches of travel.
I set my front and rear suspension to Extra smushy.
My ride is so comfy that I have to be careful not to nod off behind the wheel.
