Tyre Test

Postby boxerscott » Thu Jun 23, 2016 10:46 pm

Gotta say that expensive does not always mean best. For example my old Conti road attack front stood up a lot better than my recent Pirelli Diablo super corsa sp. The Pirelli had a tendency to de laminate and suffer rim fatigue. Ok I know I`m bloody fast and push my front to the limit even spinning the tyre on the rims but can not understand why I always seem to have slow punctures :? Image

Have you damaged the rim or the tyre with many tyre changes?
