Without it, you can get step wear or a rough, gritty surface. It seems to smooth out the vibration a bit and give a nice feel.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-47651\" src=\"https:\/\/www.decoboco.info\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/P1700835.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1280\" height=\"855\"><br \/>\nWe learn from every bike that comes back after years and thousands of kilometers.
