Can Differences

Postby rorrock » Thu Aug 05, 2004 9:52 pm

Ok guys next question... Is there any real difference between
oval and round can.

In terms of performance changes, etc??

Good question....

Guess it would depend on the size of the round can perhaps...
Some are large like mine, and some have a really small diameter.. Ovals
all seem 'pretty' similar.

It's prob still something that comes down the individual can.. I think oval
is a trend cause it's more compact which can mean lighter.... And looks cool on modern bikes..
