Azonic Posted June 4, 2013 Posted June 4, 2013 what distance did you get on it? 3 laps around the earth. lyslexic, ChUkKy, DR ◣◢ and 4 others 7
koukie Posted June 4, 2013 Posted June 4, 2013 Shame mr fuzzle can we have a fondsinsameling for you to buy new tyres? Those tyres saw the world! Steven Knoetze (sk27) 1
Mr SingleTrack Posted June 4, 2013 Posted June 4, 2013 someone should teach Rex how to corner, there is way to much tread left on those side knobbies Hairy 1
Mr SingleTrack Posted June 4, 2013 Posted June 4, 2013 I bet your tyres clear mud like a boss ChUkKy 1
RexFuzzle Posted June 4, 2013 Author Posted June 4, 2013 I went riding at Groenies when they were quite smooth like this and was amazed at how well they handled- granted it was only on the back wheel, but only spun out once or twice on the SS. I have learned to corner using the brakes and weight on one side, but very difficult to get low down like that.Recon I got about 2.5k km out of them, could have got more, but at some point I really just wanted to know where the rubber stopped and what happened then.
Slowbee Posted June 4, 2013 Posted June 4, 2013 send those pics to who ever makes cross marks - reckon they will give you a free set just for trying to ride em into the ground ... no wait, ride them out of rubber
RexFuzzle Posted June 4, 2013 Author Posted June 4, 2013 The canvas actually split and with a big bang the air left- thus the repair. Granted they were at 4 bar.
Sepia Posted June 4, 2013 Posted June 4, 2013 Thanks for the info. Just when i thought I would need a new rear tyre. By the look of things, I can seriously do another 1.5K. Even on tar.

Wimmas Posted June 4, 2013 Posted June 4, 2013 Goeie werk. That's what I call getting every cent out of what you are paying for. I've then got another 2.1k left on mine of it also lasts to 2.5k
