Default Tires?
Anyone else noticed that the price of tires has gone through the roof? I am paying about $50 more this year as compared to last year for the same tire. Dammit man!!

That Sucks!
The 5 tires I burned through the last year and a half were free thanks to the extended warranty that came with the bike I bought last year used.
But now that warrantee is up and all tires will come out of my pocket :sad:

Hey BP - the life span of a tire down south is significantly less than up north due to the heat. Spend some time riding Texas blacktop in the summer and you'll see how fast your rubber evaporates.

Cheers,

Speed
