Odinson Posted February 14, 2017 Share General question: What would be considered good milage on a MTB tyre? How long is a piece of string? It all depends on the type of tyre, where its ridden, how its ridden, etc. etc. I think a minimum of 1000km is okay, but even that number can be a bit arbitrary.

Sure I realise there are many factors that would affect it. But just to get a general idea. I noticed on my current set of which most of it was ridden on hard surfaces (tar road or hard gravel road and then some single track) I am on about 2300 km.

Breezer Posted February 14, 2017 Share I get on the back tyre (maxxis ikon) about 4500km. If I go on tar I get half that amount. Bateleur1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JXV Posted February 14, 2017 Share Back tyres usually wear more than fronts. Rider behaviour has a big influence. Rubber compounds too......sticky high grip tyres for downhilling should wear out much faster than a gravel grinder like Maxxis Crossmark. A 29er Spez Ground Control on the rear has given me about 4500km. It still has useable tread over the whole surface but traction has deteriorated a lot and it is basically done.
