Re: [RBW] Re: Tires for Clementine

It’s hard to say how long tires last. The heat and dryness out here can crack tires but I haven’t had it happen. Use, disuse, miles - it all affects the tire. I had my Betz tires for 5 years before I wore them down to the fabric. I could see the air in those tires! Oh, you asked about the WTB B

Re: [RBW] Re: Tires for Clementine

How long do tires last? Is it the number of miles (and how many), the age, environmental, a combination? Would these tires last longer I suppose, because the material is thicker (assuming all material is exactly equal, which probably isn't true). I know nothing of tires, but am curious. I'm

Hey all, I’m looking for a new bike for our daughter. Truth told most of our miles are around the city but we take to gravel now and again. She doesn’t want a mountain bike. Something step through and more upright like a Clem or a Chev are interesting but I don’t want to spend that much because

I've traveled all over the UK with a bike and never even had a bag stolen off of it. Just be smart locking it up, and maybe grab a cable lock or two for wheels and accessories. Honestly if you're not in London (where pro-thieves operate), you're probably fine. Would be a shame to mess with the

Other ideas. Buy ball bearings that barely fit inside allen wrench key-holes and smear them in there with bees wax. You have to melt the wax to get them out. Lock your bike between other bikes and lock the wheels and frame (I keep a hefty u-lock at my most frequented bike rack, then travel w
