interesting fact - the aerospoke is built on top of a velocity aerohead.
Yeah I'd change the tires, at least the rear one. I'd opt for an armadillo, they aren't nice to ride on but they withstand skids/punctures nicely, esp the 700x25 and above.
Also you may want to chage the gear ratio, it doesn't say what ratio you're going to get. If it's 48x16 change it, 48x18 is more likely i guess... that is ok but you'll skid your tire out quickly. 19 will be nice and easy but a bit spinny, 17 might be a bit high...
