hi GRAHAMM, yes i knew how to date the tyre thats how i know its 7 years old :thumbup . as you say 5 years old seems to be the reconmended life span, so 2 years over which does not sound a lot but 40% over :eek ...got a mis-match at the moment, maxxis on the front, bridgestone on the back, both getting low ..
have just checked the age of the bridgestome....14/07 :eek :eek :eek :eek 13 years old,had this off a friend a few years back as part worn,i should of checked the date then :o ...
front tyre has held pressure overnight :thumbup so good pratice to check rims when changing tyres
bike will be used as back up whilst i replace the clucth on the cage later this week,on lockdown at the moment but i will be going into work on friday which might be an excuse to take the bike...second ride this year :'(
