Let me make something clear - I am not selling Dynabeads.

I am not telling anyone that they have to go out and put them in their tires.

The video simply demonstrates that they do, indeed, work as advertized.

Yes, I have Dynabeads inside of every tire on the three motorcycles that I personally own and ride.

Since switching to Dynabeads I no longer suffer from any feathering or cupping wear on my front tires, which was common with weights.

I like them, you decide for yourself...

On Dunlops WarranTy Page:

Tires injected with dry/liquid balancers or sealants, or in which anything other than air has been used as the support medium.

@frescoces - If you don't want to use them, then don't. Nobody is forcing you to put them into your tires.

But the fact is that they work. - PERIOD!!!

And unlike powders or liquids, Dynabeads leave no trace inside your tire, so there is no way to tell they had been used if you do have a warranty issue. No problem!

btw - When WAS the last time you had a warranty claim on a tire?

What about uneven wear from an out of balance tire?

Can I make a guess which is more of an issue???

Has anyone tried BB's? BB's weigh a fraction of a 1/4 ounce (the small size of metal weight for balancing tires) and fit inside my tire's valve stem.....

@LiveHappy76 - Some trucking fleets even use golf balls inside of the large tires on their semis...

But a steel BB is not as dense as the ceramic used in Dynabeads and is larger diameter, meaning it won't concentrate the mass as well at the point of imbalance.

Also any moisture inside of the tire (condensation) will cause the BB's to rust and start to clump together and become rough and abrasive to the inner liner of the tire.

It would be good to see a demo of a tire mounted to a balancer. See what the reading is and what weights are needed. Add the beads and then check it again. Do you have anything like that?

[BMWzenRider]

@tykesplace - Read through the comments and replies, this subject has already been covered.

Dynabeads need an axle that is free to move in order to redistribute properly. (like a wheel on a car/bike)

A fixed axle balancing machine won't let an unbalanced wheel move freely as it would on a vehicle moving down the road; therefore, the Dynabeads won't work as intended.

I have a Volvo 240 that I bought cheap Fuzion HRi tires for with some old turbo wheels. They shook like hell even after they were balanced at the tire shop. At 75mph, the whole car bucked and shook. I put 3oz of dynabeads in each tire and it smoothed things out, but not all the way. I got the wheels rebalanced at my tire shop and now they're smooth to 100+mph. The tire balancer machine got the same result each time when spinning up the tires with the beads in them, thankfully.

@tykesplace agreed....exactly what I was thinking.

@BMWzenRider Dunlop Is not the same company as those.....

I have been using Dyanabeads in my motorcycle for several years now and love them. Recently I put on a new front tire and the shop did not have dyanabeads so I just have them balance the tire normally. At about 70 mph the tire had a shimmy, this become such a pain that I order Dyanbeads on line, took off the weights the shop put on and put in the beads. The bike handles great now, I guess I never knew just how well they worked until I didn't have them, I even use them in my car now.
