Iron Posted June 19, 2013 Share I don't think it matters what tyres you have - snakeskin, protection, bulletproof etc etc. If you ride like a muppit enough you will cut the sidewall or get a puncture. Does not mean the tyres are rubbish. Conti, Schwalbe, Maxxis etc are all quality brands. fixed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChUkKy Posted June 19, 2013 Share sneaky russian, thought I will give them another go after the back one dropped me at j2c.... PS don't tell sean, he will never ride with me again if he knew I bought some from cwc couple of weeks ago If we're riding together and you get a porridge wheel, I will not speak any harm towards you or your tyre.I will only ask how well your ride is going and can we pick up the pace a little rouxtjie 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am giving them another go though, maybe I had a bad tyre or just plain bad luck. If I do run into these tread cutting issues again...cheers big ears Edited June 19, 2013 by rouxtjie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
