Tyre change ??

[Sensei]

Just wondering how far other's on here ride their trye's down to before changing them for new one's . Half/ full worn/ canvass showing ?? & do ya Burn out what's left just for the hell of it . Myself I take them till they are fully worn but adjust my riding to suit the fact there is not much tread left, Eg ride slowly

Last time I took that last mm off my tyre I pinched the tube over a bridge and ended up stranded in the middle of nowhere,it's 3mm for me now,or when ever I feel it's a bit too low.

I usually change mine for the summer - mainly because a years worth of commuting makes them go a bit square. Otherwise will wait til the tread is border-line legal.

Usually wait till its bald in the middle for a road tyre, or lost its grip from too many heat cycles for a race tyre...

I have seen KK use a race tyre down to the canvas.... STILL PUTTING DOWN 1:10's AND 1:11's!!!!!!!!! That man is crazy :crazy:

till it goes flat in the middle on the rear, of course this is risky cause the less tread you have the more prone to punctures you are.

I like to change when i still have about 1 mm in centre only for if it gets wet u still got bit of gip :rockon:

I wait till my roadbikes tyres fail a warrant.

That's when I decide on a new tyre.

i run the rears down till they're basically bald in the middle. i change the front when they're bald on the shoulder. usually works out about 1 front-2 rears...

If it is coming into winter I will definitely change tyres if well worn. Mind you the way summer is at the mo. Just as wet weather pretty much.

Grip is good! Real good!!!! :rockon:
