Pedal on down to your local cool shop or any other nearby magazine selling location for a copy. 4 months ov ridin on his Continental Explorer Pro 2.1 tires, The Old Coot noticed that his back tire was startin ta slide around, specially on downhills, n' specially when he was brakin.
Most people realizes that as tires wear, they gits lighter.
But, dependin on their use, they gits lighter differently. Tires used primarily for downhill will show a completely different wear pattern than tires used fer x-country, or tires what sees a lot ov pavement. N' that way he kin easily tell jest how far gone they is. So The Old Coot bought a new tire n' put it on back. The slidin around problem disappeared.
