Re: Tires: Rotating weight vs radial construction
Gut says lower rolling resistance of radial will be faster than lower rotational inertia of bias ply tire.
Rotational inertia is more a factor the faster it spins and axle/tire wheel combo is very low speed relatively speaking. Axle rpm though traps will be in 1,500 rpm range for a stocker.
Figure the stick guys would chime in here. Similar to a heavy vs. light flywheel debate and I don't have a dog in that fight.
