Blackbird

I’ve attached my long term evaluation of the Avon Viper Sport tyre. Everyone has favourite tyres and that’s how it should be but I’ve tried to bring some objectivity to tyre performance on my bike. I’m certainly not pushing this particular tyre over any other type for anything other than the Blackbird and how I ride it. However, I’ve made some observations on the probable impact of suspension set-up on tyre performance and life which may be of interest. It might be stating the bleedin’ obvious to suspension experts like Robert Taylor but it’s nice to get a handle on just what the benefits might be.
