 About 250 miles ago I posted a blog about the funky tire nipples and how long they usually last.

 Last evening I noticed my front tire still has them, and that's with nearly 400 miles!

The ones on the rear are long gone, but this front tire apparently has never-ending nipples. Crazy!

1. Dave, we know how you ride dude. The front wheel needs to be in contact with the road in order to show wear...

3. naw we're talking boring lane splitting.
also, when the tire comes back down from a wheelie it wears a lot actually. you know, the big puff of smoke like when a plane touches down!

4. yeah, along with a huge, audible chirp as the tire protests going from 0 to 100 in about 6 inches...
