I saw something flapping on my front tire when I set off for a ride this morning, and the flapping bit was in fact part of the tire. I guess I'll finally have to put on the new tire that has neem sitting in my shed for a year. ๐
Still lots of life. No risk at all, so why waste money?

What did you do? That tire is just getting started. It always gets faster with the little nubby things fall off

You can always glue some old inner tube on the bald spots, would be a shame to waste it

Turn it inside out and get another 4,000 miles out of it.

I love Conti’s, but oof putting them on. They are always tough for that first stretch onto the rim (still can be challenging even after that). They will not roll off your rim though. That is for sure. Conti Ultra’s are good. I’ve put lots of miles on those tires.

You certainly get your moneys worth out of a tyre.

As long as the air isn’t showing through, ride it.
