Seat upgrades?

My land is bumpy. Does filling the rear tires with liquid make the ride better or worse on bumpy land?

Pretty sure worse. If you are 80% filled, you won't be able to air the tires down much to help cushion the ride.

Hard to compress most fluids, yet air is compressible. I think you'd have your answer right there.

Worse. It reduces the amount of cushion in your tires - less air capacity = less cushion.

If your tires are filled to the valve stem at 12 o’clock you should have plenty of air head to help with the ride. On a really short sidewall tire, maybe not so much.

I cut with a similar BX with Rimguard in the rears, so this week I tried to see if the ride was the same as just air alone and it didn't seem any different.
