DynaBeads - Tire balance

[moto]

HI

Has anyone used "DynaBeads" to balance tires as you ride? If you have, what do you think?

moto,

Here is a link to a discussion on this matter:

I've used DynaBeads before, they perform as advertised, both the good points and the bad. By bad I mean you do notice more instability in the handling at very low speed maneuvers. I also know people who successfully use DynaBeads exclusively to balance their tires, i.e. no balancing weights.

I'm using them now, and have been happy w/them. Have about 8000 miles with them, and the tires seem as smooth running as any I've had.

I used them with MANY sets of tires, but now I balance. The reason is not because of erratic slow speed handling, but because of strange high speed oscillations that I only notice while riding above 80mph for extended periods of time. Plus, weights are cheaper. The way I go throught tires, the balancer will pay for itself quickly.
