I've had my bike barely 5 months (my first bike).
First rear tire, OEM Dunlop Roadsmart, ate a fat nail around 4300 miles.
This rear tire, Dunlop Q2, ingested a fat screw at 6900 miles.
(...and let the forum members insert "nail" and "screw" related jokes here...)
Even though the rear Q2 is feathering on the side edges already, I figure it still had about 50% (2k miles?) life remaining.
The front is about 90% used on the side edges.
Treads on tops of both tires are still lovely.
(I ride Mulholland Drive everyday to work and back - hard. And my weekend rides are Mulholland Highway or Angeles Crest. I likes me them twisties! :Flash
Time for a pair of new sneakers.
And into the "which tire is best" debate I wearily and warily and not too merrily go...:zombie: :catfight:
