Re: Michelin PR3 tyres
thing is mate its an american forum.... on another yank forum i often use they are horrified that i change my tyres 3 times a year lol.
some are getting 60k+ out of a rear WTF
they obviously dont ride the same as we do.
why use a 3ct tyre if you have no intention of ever leaning it.
and seriously... read on.... after seeing chunks fall off a tyre that shouldve been changed at least 5000 mile earlier, he continued to ride on the front until it blew out and wrote his bike off.
what a pillock!!!
like i have tyres in my garage with perfect tread on them but they are from like 1987. if i dropped them theyd probably shatter!
why spend 10grand on a bike and then scrimp on tyres, seeing its all thats between you and your maker.
nothing wrong with the tyres.... its the way they are being abused.
