Bike maintenance: new tire
May. 13th, 2015 07:52 pmThe Nashbar (Cheng Shin) tire I put on in May of 2014 is about shot - cord visible in 8 places, up from 3 a week ago.
So it lasted one year and 1350 miles. Not bad for a $12 tire I guess, and I have 3 more of them. When they're gone, I think I might look for a longer lasting tire. The Marathons I bought for $24 a few years ago lasted about 7000 miles, but then again, those were 32s not 23s. Still, probably better value for money.
Odometer: 4228
