Urgent tyre sale

[HDTboy]

I need to sell a pair of used Continental Race Attack tyres tonight.
These tyres have done one day's racing on Two Smoker's bike, and have at least 3000 road km of life left in them.

The Stranger has written a review here (http://www.kiwibiker.co.nz/forums/showpost.php?p=1281183&postcount=23)

Tonight only you can buy a pair of these tyres for the low price of $200.
First in first served.
Call me on 0212517356, or Two Smoker on 0272288651

[HDTboy]

Is Korn up? Does he want tyres?

he's always in the market for new tyres; but i don't think you'll be getting $200 of him.. maybe a few ounces in exchange ..??? :wari:

180/55/17 & 120/70/17???

[HDTboy]

190/55, 120/70
The 190 gives a lot more side grip than a 180

180/55/17 & 120/70/17???

What Gav said....

[cowboyz]

arent you "bending" the tyre though? screwing with the profile? I dont profess to be an expert, just logical. My bike had a 190 on it when I brought it and I changed to the 180 when I put new tyres on cause thats what is surposed to be on it.

Depends. What size rims do you have?

BTW, your posts with lime-green text are fuckin hard to read in the Light Universe colour scheme.

[HDTboy]

Yes you are.

That's the short answer.

Using a 190/55 on the rear of a bike with a 5.5" rim does indeed squeeze the tyre together, this has two main effects.

1) The rolling radius of the tyre is larger

2) The profile is steeper

The larger rolling radius decreases your final drive ratio, and steepens the angle of the forks

The steeper profile makes the bike feel like it's tipping faster, and gives a flatter contact patch when the bike is on it's side. Hence much much much more side grip.

5.5 and yes the green text is hared to read in the light universe. I started doing it as a joke in the Manawatu threads but the constant red rep from Mental trousers makes me do it all the time now cause I am a stubbon arsehole. You should come over to the darkside anyhow.

all good. I think I will stick to mine for now. If they were 180s I might have thought about putting them in the shed for next time round but being as I just put 2 new tyres on and xmas is a week away and I want to get laid before new year I will leave it for now. Cheers anyhow.

[snot]

I will leave it for now. Cheers anyhow.
