That's what I was thinking. They look like they'd have good grip on most surfaces, plus I don't rode a whole lot, mostly just recreation. I don't need these tires to last thousands of miles, but I would prefer they last longer than 25 miles lol
Knobbier tires will have a shorter life on pavement vs. a more "city" or road tire too. This tire is kind of inbetween, but I bet you will get at least a few hundred miles at minimum.
Yeah, the semi slicks that come on the bike are almost bald after 25 miles. Not cool. Since this bike is more of a Sunday cruiser and not a daily commuter, tires that last a ton of miles aren't really a concern of mine.
Yeah, they are. But they look like they'd be nice fory bike.
I have a rule of thumb I use with tires. Will they last 5 years? After 5 years, tires are basically at the end of practical life from aging and will start dry rotting/cracking or just start getting super hard.
Yeah, if I still lived where I could constantly ride it I would definitely get some lasting tires. But I don't feel like riding this bike down Ky route 3 is a good idea, so it's more of a Sunday cruiser. I'll definitely ride it more after I get my truck registered and the bit of work it needs done. Then I'll at least be able to take it somewhere.
