Attention New Members and those new registering! We had a lot of problems with spammers and bot attacks with the stock measures provided by the software. The 7 for registration was a fix that we came up with on our own that has worked quite well. Yes it is a PIA for both you and administration to put you onto your chosen username. If you come back on and your login does not work retry with your username without the 7. Thanks for joining us from the administration.

I can tell you don't load alot. You need to grease them up first. THEN, they will be real tack-drivers.

I usually take the clip off first when I use wheel weights.

Naw You guys got it all wrong.

You use a shop press to force the weight in.
This shears the clip off too
But only after filling the case with the fastest burning powder you have and priming it with a magnum primer.

If I can't break it off using a pair of pliers then I just mash them flat by squeezing them in a vise.

I used to put my bikes in the living room but I was single then. Wife has more sh*t than I have now. Winter time I do any reloading in the living room still yet.

well swede iffn you take the clip off before loading you gotta
do a voodoo ceremony to appease the spirits. Who will then carry
all your clipless weights around for you untill you have time to load them.
