Tires

Hmmmm.... I popped onto this thread because the tires on my Cranbrick... well, the one on the back anyway... has gone prematurely bald. Is that from the stress of the motoized drivetrain or my fat 200lb carcass? Or both? These are the origional whitewalls to the bike and by my figures, they have over 500 miles on board. Tenatively, I have rotated them- the front tire looked fairly decent, so I figure the stress on it couldn't be too severe. When the tread on the back matches the bald one up front, I'll get new rubber... something just this side of bullet-proof. I'm not one to go cheap on road rubber.
